The United Kingdom faces a momentous decision, whether to leave or to remain in the European Union. As voters will soon be asked to settle the issue in a referendum, there is a need for more information and impartial analysis. At this event we will debate the main questions with the help of academic specialists, representatives from the voluntary and business sectors. Members of the audience will be given the chance to pose questions to the panel and discuss the effects for Sheffield and the region.

The event is a public debate with a panel including Chair Dr Matthew Wood, Crick Centre, University of Sheffield, Susan White, CEO of Voluntary Action Sheffield and member of the European Strategic investment Fund Board, Gary Bell Volunteer Advocate at ASSIST, Julie Kenny, Chair and CEO of Pyronix (Rotherham) and member of the Local Economic Partnership, Professor Simon Bulmer, University of Sheffield and Professor Michael Keating University of Aberdeen.
