About this Taster Session
In 2022, The Independent published an article saying the UK faces a cult epidemic with around 2,000 active cults across the UK. Are you curious what cults are? Are you interested in how cult leaders recruit members? And do you want to find out why occult cults attract the interest of law enforcement? In this session we'll think about the term "cult" and look at some recent examples.
