UnMute

UnMute is a fun and friendly discussion and debate club, where you can meet new people and pick up skills that will help you communicate in lots of different situations; at school, with friends and family, and in your future life and career.

Project dates: Wed 1 Jun – Sat 23 Jul

Our sessions are for everyone, whether you speak up first or like to listen before you talk. You’ll learn how to debate many different issues and ideas, everything from society to social media, science to sports, creativity, business, politics and more. What topics do you want to talk about?

To find out more and meet the UnMute team, we are inviting parents and students to a taster workshop on Weds 1st June.
