Welcome Week Services Fair – Your Chance to Meet the Teams

As part of your induction to Birmingham Newman University, our Services Fair is your opportunity to meet the teams who will support you throughout your studies and explore the services available to help you succeed.

Dates & Times

  • 1 September – 11am – 2pm
  • 4 & 5 September – 11:30am to 1pm
  • 15, 17, 18 & 19 September – 11am to 2pm

Note: The Students’ Union Welcome Fair will take place on 16 September – see their website for more details.

You’re welcome to drop in and take part on any of the fair dates — it doesn’t have to be the day of your induction.

  • Chat with Careers about your future plans, grab some sweets and an employability bag, and register on My Career for a chance to win a £25 Amazon voucher.
  • Make a badge with our Environmental Officer, download the OurNewman app to spin the wheel and win a prize, and join the Library for Q&A activities and their Prize Every Time Lucky Dip.
  • Advice & Wellbeing will be offering stress tests, sound therapy, and an Affirmation Station, while E-Learning invites you to take their “Who You Gonna Call?” quiz for a prize draw entry.
  • Try the Sport team’s exercise bike challenge and visit the Chaplaincy to choose the “word of the day” and share some positivity.

And that’s just the start — there’ll be many more services, activities, and opportunities to explore each day of the fair. Come along, get involved, and make the most of what’s on offer!
