As we’re sure you’re now aware, the current PM Rishi Sunak has called for a general election to vote for a brand new Prime Minister earlier than expected.

We just wanted to let you know that as a team, we are here for you and as you’re reading this, we are gathering all the information we can so we’re able to support you and give you access to all the information you need to vote! So keep your eyes peeled there’ll be more information coming soon! 🕰️ 🗳️

This time next week we will be welcoming student parents and their kids to our picnic in the sunshine (🤞).

Swipe to see the vibes ➡️

We have loads of fun planned including:
☀️ A bouncy castle
🖌️ Face painting
⚽ Space to have fun with footballs, hula hoops, skipping ropes, space hoppers, plus loads more
🏆 Fun activities where your kids can win prizes including a tin can alley and catch a duck
🍉 Food and drinks to refresh and refuel between all the fun

And it's all free too!

We cannot wait to see you and your kids if you are a student parent but be sure to grab your free tickets via the link in our bio so we know you are coming!
