Surrey Leaders launch
We officially launched the Surrey Leaders network on 3 June 2024 at a special event held in the Palace of Westminster. It was a fantastic evening that also included the awarding of the 2023 Vice Chancellor's Alumni Awards.
It was the first time that we gathered some of the Surrey Leaders together and attendees had the opportunity to speak with YS Chi whose generous gift has enabled this network to be created.
