The society facilitates the practice of debating at King's. We are one of the University's most active Societies, meeting weekly for practice debates, as well as holding social events, public debates and much more.

There are many reasons why you might want to debate; to improve your public speaking, develop analytical skills or boost your confidence. Whether you've never debated before or you're an experienced debater the society can help you flourish. As well as practicing at our weekly meetings, members have the opportunity to progress through the many competitions we enter.

But the Society isn't just about the debating. One of the things members praise is the sense of community we have. For example we head to the pub to have a few drinks after every meeting. Foremost the society is friendly and open, if you are considering joining us you can be sure that you will be welcome.

Please, look around the website and discover what we are about. If you have any questions, feel free to contact us at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it .
