Women's Society

Womens

Our main purpose is to promote equality on campus (luckily, there isn't a lot of inequality at Keele) so we are free to pursue other projects. We have meetings every fortnight with vibrant discussions of relevant topics. We have two campaigns planned for the coming year, a domestic violence campaign in November and a positive image campaign in March.  This year we are going to launch the long awaited Keele Street Team, to make sure there is a huge presence on our dark and scary campus at night! And Look out for our show on Kube radio!

If you're interested in photography, journalism, marketing, sales...or just want to make a lot of new friends, then this is for you. Former members now work for the BBC and national newspapers. You do NOT need experience or specific skills, training will be given where needed, and volunteering accreditations are available. There's cupcakes too.
