English UK Parliamentary Reception


Thursday 11 May, 13:30 - 15:30 | House of Commons

English UK's parliamentary reception will be held in the Terrace Pavilion of the House of Commons on Thursday 11 May from 13:30 - 15:30. The event is kindly hosted by Stephen Hammond, MP for Wimbledon.

This is a valuable opportunity for English UK members to meet and network with MPs, Lords and other stakeholders, to raise the profile of UK ELT and our need for policy support from government. We'll be launching our new position paper at the event.

Invite your MP

If you're attending, please invite your MP to meet you at the reception. You can use our email template and customise it as you wish.

You can invite two MPs if you live and work in different constituencies. Make sure you include the relevant address in your email, so they'll consider the invitation.


Register to join us

Member tickets are £30 + VAT. Light lunch and refreshments will be served.

Our annual Members' Conference & AGM takes place the following day on Friday 12 May. One free in-person place is available for every English UK member centre and corporate member. We hope that members travelling to London will be able to take advantage of both events.
