Meet the Team

I am Orestis, a passionate individual hailing from Athens, Greece. With a background in Fashion Marketing, I combine my love for visual communication and storytelling to create impactful work that addresses societal and cultural issues. I find that I can express my inner thoughts, morals, and culture best through the art of writing.

Cooking is one of my many passions, where I find joy in experimenting with flavours and creating delicious culinary experiences. I also enjoy sharing a glass of wine with friends, as it brings people together in moments of warmth and community.

Driven by my desire to make a difference, I am not afraid to push boundaries and think outside the box. Through creative endeavours, I strive to raise awareness on matters that deeply affect and interest me. By employing innovative approaches, I seek to ignite meaningful conversations and provoke positive change.

Hi! I'm Laura and I’m the Student Activities Manager. I am incredibly passionate about supporting student groups and volunteers to provide quality, fun events and activities, which are accessible to all! Since graduating from Liverpool John Moores University with my Event Management degree, I have worked within student sector in a variety of ways. I’ve worked at numerous SU’s within the North West in their Student Opportunities Teams. I’ve spent years running international sports competitions/festivals - where thousands of University sports students go with their teams on Tour over Easter and I’ve also worked nationally at Freshers Fairs with a pizza company as their promotions manager too. A bit about me: I’ve just moved down to Cornwall so I’m enjoying exploring the delights of my new home. I play rugby (League & Union) and I’m also training for a triathlon raising money for charity. Feel free to get in touch with anything Activities related or just to say hi!
