What we offer

A dedicated team of Education Outreach Workers organise and plan events for students. We work with students from Year 6 to college leavers and everyone between. 

We focus on providing information about higher education so students can make informed decisions about their future. You can choose sessions from our range of presentations and activities. We are also able to plan or deliver bespoke sessions if you have a specific request.

Sessions can take place on campus or in your school or institution.
