'I'm a student get me out of here'

The Events Management course at Leeds Beckett University provide their second year students with the opportunity to host their own event in small teams. The events are in aid of various charities and test the students’ professional development.
 
This year Courtney, Megan, Hollie, Mae, Beth and Kiera, have chosen to support BTRS. After researching the shortlisted charities, they all felt passionate about fundraising for BTRS, particularly when realising how many people are diagnosed each year.
 
The aim is to raise awareness to students and people aged between 18-25 in the local community, whilst aiming to raise £500 to support the charity’s work. In order to achieve this the students will host fundraisers including bake sales at the university campus and they will also be supporting BTRS with Flat Cap Friday.  The main event will be hosted at the Arc in Headingley on the 23^rd March 2017. The event is set to be a fun and challenging evening, “I’m a student get me out of here” will see attendees enjoying a quiz night with an Aussie twist – our guests will be put up to all kinds of creepy crawly challenges for extra points!
 
We wish Courtney, Megan, Hollie, Mae, Beth and Kiera the very best of luck with their exciting fundraising and we look forward to supporting you!
