Our international graduates help to fill vital skills gaps, create innovative new businesses, and enrich our communities. Here's how some of our international graduates are making a difference in Sheffield and across the UK x.com/i/status/17855…

International students make a huge contribution to our region - culturally, socially and economically. Leaders in our city, including Oliver Coppard @PaulBlomfieldMP @TomHunt100 Olivia Blake MP Louise Haigh Gill Furniss MP, recognise this: bit.ly/3ZnJ8Xr

Restricting international student numbers would hold back economic growth across the country. Earlier this month, leaders of the UK’s 11 major cities outside of London @CoreCities highlighted the importance of international students to their communities: corecities.com/international-…

International students support the teaching of UK students and help fund our world-leading research and innovation. Read a comment piece by our Vice-Chancellor Koen Lamberts in ResearchProfessionalNews on the importance of the graduate visa route to UK universities: researchprofessionalnews.com/rr-news-uk-vie…

If you agree the graduate visa route should be retained, please share this thread and write to your MP. #WeAreInternational
