The Hall Rep Scheme The Hall rep system was a scheme set up in 2009 to help integrate students into University Life, • Hall reps are part of a team of student, elected by others in their halls to represent them to Liverpool Students’ Union so their needs and wants can be met. • Encouraged by the LSU they will organise activities, events and possible an inter-halls sports team to bring students together • Regular meetings are held with the Hall Reps with the Community Engagement & Marketing Coordinator (Carrie Allen) and Vice President Community Engagement (Darren McCabe) to discuss any ideas or events they have come up. • This scheme we hope will allow us to increase communication between the Liverpool Students’ Union, Students living in halls, University Accommodation and Hall Management.
