The Role of the
Treasurer, The role of
the treasurer is to manage funding we receive from your
membership money, union support and sponsorship from
external companies. It has to be ensured there is enough
money for all the events we hold for you guys: from the
Inter-mural sport tournament, mooting and bar crawls, to
the big social events such as the Christmas Meal and the
Law Ball. The aim is to maximise Ed Brams’ money, and
budget to ensure we can do as many activities as possible,
to make your university experience the best it can be!
Cassie,
Value for
Money?
One of the first
questions thrown at the new committee this year was “why
is Ed Bram so expensive?” This was something I really
didn’t understand. For a mere £18 a year or £36 for three
years you get amazing value for money. Reduced prices for
your first year text books for a start, then there’s
discount drinks and club tickets at Ed Bram Socials, a
massively subsidised trip to Paris and Barcelona late in
October, discount admission to both the Winter and Summer
Law Balls (not to be missed), and the list goes on.
However, whilst
the financial benefits alone make it crazy for you not to
join, as a member of Ed Bram you benefit far more than
just financially. Each term The Edward Bramley Society
arranges a wide variety of legal workshops run by some of
the largest Law firms in the country, great opportunities
to get an idea of how the law works in the real world and
also a chance to meet lawyers who, one day, you may be
working with.
Trust me, the
benefits of this are far beyond the membership fee and on
that note I look forward to seeing you in September!
Best Regards,
David. |
