Socials
To unwind we have a huge range of social (both drinking and non drinking) that run regularly. They include from bar crawls, circles, film nights and activities such as lasertag and bowling! Check out our Instagram for the latest info.
Campaigns
We make a difference on campus through a mix of internal campaigns and collaborations with other societies, raising money and awareness of important issues. We also engage in the local area running regular campaigning sessions in Coventry and Leamington. During election periods, we run more intense campaigning schedules and collaborate with lots of experienced campaigners. Don't worry if you have never campaigned before, everyone is super welcoming and it is enjoyable experience.
Politics
We run a weekly political discussion event, "Labour Chats..." and welcome a diverse range of opinions on issues! Additionally, we host high-profile speakers from Parliament and the wider political sphere to bring you insight from politicians, campaigners and thinkers.
If you want to get more involved in the Labour Party, Warwick Labour is for you! We have a close relationship with our two neighbouring CLPs, Warwick and Leamington and Coventry South and encourage & financially support our members to attend national Young Labour and party events.
This year we aim to publish our first magazine edition where members and left leaning students at Warwick can offer their opinion on a variety of issues.
Speakers
We are excited to invite a variety of speakers to campus ranging from MPs like Zarah Sultana and Ian Lavery to Comedians, Authors and Poets on the left.
Liberation
Liberation is fundamental to the politics of our society. The politics of anti-racism, feminism, LGBTQ+ liberation and the liberation of disabled people are fundamental and inextricable from class politics. We have five active liberation caucuses which hold their own events and seek to work with the liberation societies on campus as closely as possible! These include LGBT+, Trans, BME, DMH and a Women's caucus.
