Join us at Wroxton Abbey and immerse yourself in the heart of post-Brexit Britain to engage with the questions shaping the future of the United Kingdom. This program brings you face-to-face with the debates defining Britain today.
Britain is at a crossroads. Over the past decade, the United Kingdom has witnessed constitutional shifts, political realignment, and ongoing debates over identity, belonging, and global influence.
Through this one-week residential program, you’ll gain first-hand access to these debates through direct experience and conversation.
This program is designed for anyone fascinated by contemporary politics, aspiring leaders, students of culture, or curious global citizens eager to understand the forces remaking Britain now. No specific background in British studies is required—just curiosity, critical thinking, and a willingness to engage.
