This week in our final episode of the season, Alan and Livia reflect on Membership Services Conference 2024 with a particular focus on on the plenaries - OfS' John Blake discussing students as consumers, a panel of sector reps discussing student experience, plus a panel on student rights where Jim asked if our theories of change need an update.

John Blake gets interested in students – but what’s his theory of change?
