A Wide Range of Exhibitors

Students had the chance to interact with representatives from some of the country’s top universities, including Liverpool John Moores University (LJMU)University of ChesterEdge Hill, and institutions from further afield such as GlasgowManchesterLeeds, and Durham. These representatives shared insights into courses, campus life, and the application process, helping students visualise their higher education journey.
