My name is Lilly! I study medicine and I’m one of this years’ Vice Presidents! I joined GUMC at the start of last year and soon found my weekend filled with (mostly!) sunny hikes and climbs. One of my main responsibilities this year is to organise all the socials for GUMC, such as our annual ‘Danger Ceilidh’- beware!
