GuildHE is an officially recognised representative body for UK higher education, championing distinction and diversity in the sector. In this role, GuildHE works alongside UUK as joint guardians of the sector to advocate for institutions within our memberships and on behalf of the entire system.

GuildHE is the most diverse representative body in the UK, serving 67 institutions across the nations and comprising universities, university colleges, further education colleges and specialist institutions. Members are small and large, rural and urban, practice-based and online, publicly and privately funded. Members are principally focused on vocational and technical higher education and include major providers of professional programmes in education and community service; healthcare; agriculture, food, and the built environment; business and law; and the creative arts.

The Chair of GuildHE is Professor Ken Sloan, the Vice Chancellor of Harper Adams University.

It is a company limited by guarantee and a charity. It was founded in the late 1970s as the Standing Conference of Principals, registered as a company in 1992 and was renamed as GuildHE in 2006.
