Every student has the right to vote freely. Candidates should not influence students while they are in the process of voting.

All students can vote for the 3 full-time roles, so take the time to see who's standing, what they stand for, and how they plan to improve student life at Brunel. Vote for the candidates you believe will represent you best!

We use the Alternative Vote system, which means you rank candidates in order of preference.
