We are the youth and student wing of the Liberal Democrats; we exist to fight for a Britain that is fair, free and tolerant based on our own values and principles of liberty and equality. We have a proud history dating back to the early 20th century championing radical and liberal thought. Today you’ll find Liberal Youth societies up and down the country tirelessly campaigning on issues such as civil liberties and human rights. Our societies can be found in almost any town or university; wherever you go there'll be young people fighting to protect the poorest and most vulnerable in our society. What separates us from the other youth and student groups? Other groups protest, Liberal Youth shapes policy. As active participants in the policy formation process of the Liberal Democrats, our voices are heard.
