ULIP STar
Head 2020/21: Billie Dibb
Vice 2020/21: Sophie Weston


Hey! STAR (Student Action for Refugees) is one of the two charity affiliated societies at ULIP. September will mark the 2nd year ULIP has worked with STAR, a UK based charity that works with over 50 universities and colleges to support the rights of refugees and asylum seekers. Last year we held lots of fundraising events such as bake sales, clothing sales, and my favourite - Christmas mulled wine. As well as pizza, film & discussion nights, and trips to museums. We have also started a volunteering group with a local refugee charity serving free breakfasts in Paris. Next academic year we will be continuing and expanding similar events and opportunities! We are also in the process of setting up a new magazine, which will contain articles on the pressing issues of today, as well as updates on our STAR activities, with all alll proceeds donated to ULIP STAR.
​
STAR helps in all manners of ways: fundraising for good causes, raising awareness in communities of the issues faced by refugees and asylum seekers, helping support individuals as they look to begin or restart their further education and campaigning for needs to be addressed by the government.

For us at ULIP, the year 2018/19 is looking to be very exciting. We have trips planned to informative events and exhibitions to provide education on related issues and fundraising events like getting involved in a nation wide STAR bake off and a pub quiz. Our main aim is to set up some community outreach projects for ULIP students to volunteer at to bridge the gaps so often found in the wider community of Paris. There’s plenty of exciting things coming up so watch this space!
