Calm Admission
We know that a careers fair can be daunting. Crowds can make some individuals feel anxious or cause concerns about physical access.
The Careers service will be starting the Careers Fair with a calmer 30 minute slot. We'll begin to admit visitors to the exhibition space from 10:00 - 10:30, the space itself will take a calm and quieter approach. This is intended to give you time to meet with employers and organisations in a less crowded space before our main event begins (you are of course welcome to stay for this too).
If you feel you need to take a break throughout the fair, you can come and go as you please until it finishes at 15:30.
