Summer School

Summer School is Labour’s preeminent forum for Labour members of all ages to discuss, debate, and develop ideas on social democracy and how the Labour Party can realise its vision. Summer School has been an annual feature in January since 2003 and is organised by Young Labour. It offers Labour members a vital opportunity to think beyond day-to-day politics and to push the boundaries of what we can achieve.
The next Summer School will be in January 2014. Contact us for more information.
