Katie Armitage

Name: Katie Armitage

Role: Women's Rugby Union Social Secretary

What skills did you gain or build upon during your role?

Although this year isn’t what we expected, I still took this role very seriously. It was important to maintain communication with all the team, even if it was mostly virtually. I tried to keep everyone’s moral up, knowing that it wasn’t what we wanted, by doing virtual socials, catching up individually and as a team.

What impact has this had on your work, education, or day-to-day life?

This role, and being part of the women’s rugby team has just made university that much more enjoyable. I have a group of people I can rely on if I’m ever struggling, we help each other through anything, university related or not.
