The Exchange is a working committee within the University of Sheffield's Students' Union, which has branched out from the Politics Society. We aim to host current political debate in an informal context. By focusing exclusively on high-profile political and public figures, we are bringing the country's, and indeed the world's, most important thinkers, politicians and even celebrities to Sheffield for your viewing pleasure. Past speakers have included the likes of Nick Clegg, Paddy Ashdown, David Blunkett, George Galloway, Alastair Campbell, David Held and Peter Stringfellow.
Vice Chancellor, Professor Keith Burnett from the University of Sheffield has enthusiastically endorsed The Exchange:
"It gives me great pleasure to support The Exchange programme, which is a shining example of how our award-winning Students' Union continues to develop activities and events that help open minds and generate discussion and debate within our university community."
