British Federation of Students

The British Federation of Students was an organization founded in 1906 that unified various university student unions across the United Kingdom. It aimed to represent students’ interests, promote higher education issues, and facilitate collaboration among student bodies. Operating until 1958, it served as a national voice for students, advocating for improvements in student welfare, educational policies, and social engagement. The federation helped coordinate activities and foster a sense of shared identity among students, laying groundwork for later national student organizations.
