Promote your business to new students at Chesterfield College

Chesterfield College is inviting local organisations to say a ‘big hello’ at its special freshers event taking place next week on Friday 11th September.

Designed to highlight the opportunities available to young people in the area, the entire Infirmary Road campus will be transformed into a festival venue for the afternoon with plenty of music, food and entertainment.

There will be a number of special guest appearances including James Argent from TOWIE, Chesterfield Football Club and Donut Creative Arts Studio (DCAS).

Stuart Cutforth, Principal at Chesterfield College said:-

“We want to celebrate the end of the first week of term and welcome the 4000 students we are expecting to join us by giving them the chance to see all the benefits that studying at college in Chesterfield can bring. We would love lots of local organisations to join us to make the afternoon one for everyone to really remember.”

If you run a club students might be interested in joining, an organisation looking for volunteers, a place for students to eat and hang out, Chesterfield college would love to hear from you. Space is limited at the event but will be offered free of charge to organisations that can help make this a first week of term to remember for the students.

Local businesses and organisations that want to be part of the festival can contact Kerry Robertson on 07875 200939 or robertsonk@chesterfield.ac.uk for more information.
