Welcome to our 2025 RLF Fellows

This month, our new Education Fellows will start working with students at universities and higher education establishments across the country.

Back in June, we welcomed the new cohort at our yearly induction event at the St Bride Foundation, London. The image above shows new RLF Fellows including Liz Hyder, Maeve Clarke and Elizabeth Lowry.
