The Sheffield Students' Assembly is a dynamic and interactive event providing students with a unique opportunity to engage directly with their local councillors, mayor, and members of parliament to address pressing student issues. The gathering aims to foster a productive dialogue between the student community and our elected representatives, creating a platform for meaningful change.

- Voice your concerns: Share your thoughts and concerns about student-related matters, such as housing, tuition fees, public transportation, mental health support, and more.
- Engage with local decision-makers: Connect with your local councillors, mayor, and members of parliament on a personal level. Ask questions, seek clarification, and advocate for the changes you'd like to see in your city and region.
- Collaborate with peers: Meet like-minded students who are passionate about making a difference in the community. Collaborate on projects, initiatives, and advocacy efforts to drive positive change.

It is an inclusive space for open and respectful discussions on issues that matter to you. We believe that by coming together, we can influence local policies and bring about positive changes that enhance the student experience in Sheffield.
