Who we are:

The UWCA is the premier university Conservative Association in the UK; well-known not only locally but by conservatives across the country.

We represent the university's right-of-center movement and are the most active political society on campus, bringing together like-minded people to not only discuss politics and promote conservative values, but also to enjoy a host of socials, speaker events, and debates.

There has never been a better time to join the UWCA. With trips (at home and away), speakers and socials this year why not check out our offering?

If you're up for campaigning, working with local politicians and meeting those more senior, get involved!

And remember, the vast majority of what we do is social, with debates (sober and not), circles and trips, we've got you covered. 

What we do:

Speaker Events

As the premier university Conservative Association in the United Kingdom, we have been fortunate enough to host a number of thought-provoking and influential speakers. Rishi Sunak, Andrea Leadsom, Nadhim Zahawi, and many more. We aim to host a speaker every fortnight, often exceeding this.

Check out our socials or get in touch to see who we've got visiting soon.

Socials 

We offer a wide range of socials throughout the year, suitable for drinkers and non-drinkers alike. You can count on there being active socials such as paintballing and bowling, alongside classic pub crawls. 

For those who fancy a drink, we host the infamous Hagueathon each year, with only an elite few ever completing the challenge.

Campaigning

It is because of our campaigning efforts, both locally and across the country, that we are held in high regard. When by-elections come (all too often atm) we always pay a visit. 

Locally, we are proud of our strong ties with local Associations, playing a key role in many of their well-deserved successes, such as in Nuneaton and Bedworth. We campaign twice a week, getting to know local politicians and making a real difference.

Campaigning is not required to be a UWCA member, but it comes highly recommended as a brilliant way to understand the politics and people of all parts of the country and develop yourself politically. Aside from that, it's great fun with friends, and you often get a meal out of it!

Chairmans' Dinner

Finally, we host a yearly black tie event with a guest speaker. Guests enjoy a 3-course meal and hear from the guest, followed by an evening of music, drinks and (depending on the number of drinks) memories. It's the perfect way to end the academic year.

If you're interested in what we do, drop us a message and we'll get back to you promptly. Ultimately, the best way to get involved is to come along and see for yourself. The UWCA can run side-by-side with your other society interests, but many members find we offer the perfect social forum for them, defining their university experience and making friends for life.
