 A Future Worth Fighting For - #WeAreWarwick: Over the next few months, we want to kick-start activism and debate across campus on issues relating to education and society. As well as organising for the NUS National Demo in November, we'll be launching and supporting talks, debates, socials and action days for students across campus to get involved in. If you're part of a society that could contribute, please get in touch by emailing education@warwicksu.com!

 On November 21st, Warwick will be joining thousands of other students from across the UK at the NUS National Demonstration in London. Not only can you buy tickets this week, we're also looking to you to mobilise and spread the word. We'll be having a host of talks, debates and socials to explain and discuss how the values of 'educate, employ and empower' impact on Warwick students. So, keep in touch and get involved!
