Welcome Fayre
Our annual Welcome Fayre gives you a great chance to find out more about the social side of things, as well as meeting your fellow students, local employers and voluntary organisations, and of course picking up lots of freebies and discount offers.
- Our 2025 Welcome Fayre is taking place on Tuesday 23rd September from 10am to 1pm in the AGBC Conference Room. We will let you know more information via your student email and on our social media channels.
Tips for making the most of your Welcome Fayre
- Save the date
Get a reminder in your diary so you don’t miss out on the fun and freebies
- Explore
Take time to visit every stall to really see what’s on offer, you don’t need to rush
- Ask questions
Ask any questions you may have; whether that’s “Can I take a free pen?” to “What discounts do you offer students?” or “Do you have any jobs or volunteering opportunities available?”
