Liberation Council

Come together with Liberation Society leaders to discuss and debate Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion!

Liberation Councils are your chance to join Liberation Society leaders to chat to your VP Welfare and the Activities and Representation Team about Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion.

Come along if you're interested in helping shape how the University and Union develop policy and react to EDI and welfare issues and create equitable change.
