Aditi becomes Northern Regional Coordinator after her election at the Spring General Assembly in Sheffield, making this her first term on National Committee

“I am most excited to contribute to SfGH on a national level, and to work towards creating a transparent and synergistic community of students involved with SFGH within the Northern region.”

The Regional Coordinators (RCs) are the first point of contact for Branches for ongoing support, development and questions.

The RCs facilitate regional-level activities, such as regional meetings and training days.
