Information event for supporters

Colleagues from the Southern Universities Network (SUN) will take us through the various routes to achieving a degree. This will include information on typical undergraduate degree routes, as well as placement opportunities within a degree and Degree Apprenticeships.

In this session we will be taking a look at the different qualification types available to students at the various stages of their education. We will be looking at the structure of different qualifications and the learning styles that may be best suited to the options available.

We know that the UCAS process can be a little overwhelming for supporters, particularly if you haven't helped anyone through it for a while and things have been updated. In this session we'll be walking you through the process of applying to university, including tips for attending open days and key points in the process for students to access extra support.

Focusing on key topic areas they feel are most important when supporting young people with similar lived experiences, current university students will be sharing their experiences of living without parental support. They will also be taking questions from attendees.

In this session we'll be taking a look not only at the financial support available to care experienced and estranged students, but the wider support packages on offer too. We will take a look at housing, wellbeing and personal advisor support too.

Heidi and James from Ripples Wellbeing will be delivering a workshop focused on empathy. Join them for an interactive session to learn more about empathy, how to lose the 'I' when others open up about themselves and build knowledge and practical skills that you can use in life.
