An external speaker is an individual/organisation who is not a student or staff member at the University of Sheffield or Students' Union, and who is invited to provide information or a viewpoint.
If your society or committee wishes to invite an external speaker as part of its event/activity (either on or off campus) then you are required to submit an External Speaker Format least 21 days (three weeks) in advance.
If the speaker is deemed to be high risk or controversial, then we will contact you with support and advice to manage the event.
