A things to start with:

WSGIScriptAlias / /home/nick/Mysite/mysite.wsgi

For this, you do not have a corresponding:

Require all granted

Also, a home directory such as /home/nick is usually not readable to other users and so Apache wouldn't be able to read stuff in that directory anyway.

Next is:

Alias /static /var/www/mysite/static/

You shouldn't have a trailing slash on final path. Not having them matched when for a sub URL can cause issues, although usually when the trailing slash is on the URL and missing for the file system path. Better just to have them match as far as whether a trailing slash is used or not.
