The Higher Education Strategic Planners Association is the representative body for those working in strategy and planning in UK higher education.
To find out more about more about what HESPA does or how to become a member, please contact us.
Executive members are intentionally spread well across the sector, selected on the basis of a balance between their individual knowledge and experience and their intuition’s type, location, mission and remit.
The HESPA office is based at Loughborough University and led by Jen Summerton, Monica Madeley and Lisa Ambler. They are supported by PHES colleagues, some of whom are based in Loughborough and others who work at different locations across the UK.
To keep HESPA running smoothly, we have a number of committees of volunteers from our membership, covering a range of functions.

We work with other sector associations as much as possible to reduce duplication and to drive collaboration and healthy cross-departmental working. Here is a list of all the associations we are aware of in HE. If you know of any others, please get in touch.
There are also lots of acronyms in the sector, so we have compiled a useful list.
