Organising events in Newspeak Hall is one of the great perks of studying at Newspeak House; a fully equipped event space that holds up to ~100 people.

Don’t worry if you don’t have a very clear idea of what you’d like to do yet - we can figure that out together.
I also manage the diary of the hall; it's a busy programme of community events, private hires, and events organised by fellows and faculty.
