Back

Motion for SU to commemorate Holocaust Memorial Day every year and for the SU and the VP Welfare and Campaigns  to launch a series of events regarding Holocaust Memorial Day to educate members of the Campus community about the dangers of Racism and extremism.  

This union notes: 

  1. That racism is once again becoming a prominent issue in society (over 35% of ethnic minority groups in the UK have experienced a racist assault in the past year) (1)
