NYGEL KITHEKA MBITHI

Hi, I'm Nygel, your current Black & Minority Ethnicity Officer!

As the elected BME Officer, my mission is to unite, empower, and amplify the voices of Black students on campus by building strong networks, driving innovation, and celebrating cultural identity.

🔗 Strategic Connections

I will work to establish partnerships with national platforms like 10,000 Black Interns and Bright Network to ensure Black and African students have access to internships, career opportunities, and personal development pathways.

📱 Community Hub Creation

I plan to launch a WhatsApp Community Group Chat for all BME students, with society heads as admins, to centralize the sharing of opportunities, events, resources, and support systems.

💡 Student-Led Innovation

I will collaborate with fellow students to co-create practical solutions that improve the BME student experience — from academic support tools to wellbeing initiatives.

🌍 Cultural Celebration

I aim to host a Cultural Day that brings our community together to celebrate African and Caribbean heritage through music, food, dance, and fashion — showcasing the richness and diversity of our cultures.

My vision is to build a stronger, more connected BME community that thrives on opportunity, representation, and pride.
