What is SPANC?
Our annual National Conference brings together student journalists, editors and publication teams to learn from industry professionals, develop their skills and celebrate the best student journalism.
Whether you’re attending your first conference or returning for another year, SPANC is an opportunity to meet fellow student journalists, take part in practical workshops and hear from people working across the industry.
