JMSU is a Pro-Choice Campus
Pro-Choice Campus Result
We can confirm that you voted for a Pro-choice campus. Over the past three days, all LJMU students had the opportunity to vote Yes, No or Abstain on whether JMSU should be a pro-choice campus. This means that an implementation plan will be co-created alongside students, and we will begin putting the policy into action. Get in touch with the Student Voice team at studentvoice@ljmu.ac.uk if you are interested in being involved and shaping the plan.
