King’s College London facilitates a large and diverse range of topical speaker events each year across our campuses, in line with our values of encouraging knowledge sharing, vibrant debate and our clear commitment to securing freedom of speech and expression within the law. We also have a duty of care to our staff, students and external visitors to ensure that events take place safely.

This policy and related procedures sets out King’s policy on bookings for events that include an external speaker(s) but that are not part of the curriculum of an academic programme or a research event series of a faculty, school, department, institute or centre.
