Welcome

The AHS is an umbrella organisation which represents atheist, Humanist and secular student societies in the United Kingdom. We provide support and resources for established and newly-forming societies as well as a national voice.

The AHS is run for students by students, and its leading figures are selected from its member societies. Its governing body is the Committee, which in turn is directed by an elected Executive.

If you're a non-religious student society and you are not already an affiliated member of the AHS, you should be. You can learn more about the benefits of being a member and how to apply in the membership section. Even if you don't fit the bill exactly, there will be a membership type for your organisation.

If you would like to learn more about the AHS, the about us section is a good place to start. Alternatively if you would like to contact us you can email us at info@ahsstudents.org.uk.

In the words of A. C. Grayling...

"I wish the new federation well, warmly applaud the initiative that has brought it into existence, and feel happier about the future as a result. This is more than another candle in the dark, it is a whole candelabrum, shining its welcome light onto the forward path, for the many who see the world as a natural realm, for which the responsibility – for the planet's health as for the peace, flourishing and good of all its human residents – belongs to humankind alone." February 19th, The Guardian.
