Daisy Dillon - Pokemon Society

Thank you to: Daisy Dillon

Student | Pokemon Society

Some proud students told us...

" Daisy Dillon has single-handedly turned Pokémon society from a small group with overlapping interests into a thriving and interconnected community of like-minded people. Her charisma and passion ensures that everyone feels welcome, and she's constantly making efforts to connect with her members and that they connect with eachother, transforming the society into a thriving group where anyone can happily join and interact with anyone else knowing they'll be welcomed and engaged. She organises events both in and out of session, giving people ample time to meet up to study, chat or just enjoy a nice day. During events involving presentations or public speaking she ensures the members are heard and respected. Without her I believe the society would not have grown and flourished as much as it had, as she has brought her energy with her every session to ensure we all have the best time. Thank you for being an outstandingly compassionate and motivated society manager."

"Daisy-Jane Dillon is the Manager of the Staffs pokemon society and a good friend of mine, I personally have always found it hard to socialise and talk with people though dispite that thanks to the pokemon society I have been able to meet like-minded people thanks to events she and the committee put together. Additionally Daisy is just a very approachable and friendly person who's always looking out for others that even out of society is fun to be around, one occasion in particular that comes to mind to show this is before the previous module deadlines she hosted multiple all-nighter sessions in Cadman for anybody to hang, get work done and give feedback on each other's projects which certainly made the usual pre-deadline period of everybody locking in and finishing their own work feel alot less lonely while still maintaining productivity. Though her skills in Cuphead might be lacking she is still a person I'm very happy to of met in my time at Uni and has helped me feel proud to be at Staffs - Thank you for being a good friend and another in this world who can acknowledge the superiority of the colour Yellow."

"Daisy has made Pokemon Society her number one priority and strives to make sure everyone is welcome. As soon as someone new comes into the room, she's the first to come over and introduce herself. Under her leadership, the pokemon society has grown immensely to probably one of the largest society's in the uni and she has not let that large size phase her. Daisy continues to be an amazing society manager and that is nothing short of commendable."

"As the pokemon society manager they have always made anyone feel welcome to the pokemon society, they have also planned many fun and exciting events. Out of society they are a great friend who cares about everyone and makes sure they are happy. Thank you for being a great manager of the pokemon society and a great friend."

"Daisy is the nicest person I've ever met, she's such a kind individual who goes above and beyond in her duties as manager, who's always doing anything she can to help people both in and out of society sessions, and i know she'll keep doing great things both in and out of university. she's so dedicated to this the society being the best it can be and making sure everyone is comfortable."

"Alongside the rest of the committee, Daisy is the reason Pokemon Society is so successful. She is an amazing person overall, incredibly kind and passionate about making the student experience as a whole more enjoyable. She is a great leader and a greater friend, and I believe I can speak for the entire society when I say it wouldn't be the same without her."

"The Pokémon society I feel would not have flourished as bright as it had without Daisy as the manager. She is able to recognise everyone's names and faces, something I envy, but also actively engages to learn everyone's personality and interests. She keeps everyone's morale going even when she may not be feeling it herself. I know I speak for many in our society that we appreciate everything Daisy has done for us."

"Daisy is an amazing manager for the Pokémon Society and an even more amazing friend. She is always interacting with the members of Pokémon Society and asking everyone what she can do to improve the society and events. I have never seen someone who is as committed as her to both her passion for Pokémon and for cultivating a welcoming society. Pokémon Society would not be what it is without Daisy and everyone I've spoken to agrees that she is the perfect person for the role of Manager."

"Daisy is an incredible person to know. She has a talent for bringing people together within the soc and making their day better. She is always available if you need her and doesn't hesitate to lend a helping hand. She remembers everyone's names in the society which is also really impressive considering how many members we have."

"Daisy is the manager of the society and dedicates herself to the role. She absolutely cares about everyone individually and always strives to create events that as many people as possible will enjoy. She also works closely with the Student Union to organise gatherings and larger scale events outside of the weekly social sessions."

"I would like to Nominate Daisy. I think she does an amazing job. She is always at the forefront of every event and helps big time when someone needs something. I think she has become a great friend to me and to most people in the society she has supplied them with a time they probably didn't expect but a time that they enjoy with others."

Thank you Daisy for making a positive difference for students here at Staffs.
