So now we have an idea of the rockstar cast you'd like to see - which providers should we invite? Our Freshers' Helpers came up with this list:
University Clubs and Societies Local Health Services Student Insurance Discount companies Banks Gyms Travel Local restaurants Hairdressers Magazine Publishers Book Publishers Book Shops Estate Agents Charities with Volunteering Opportunities Student Mobile Phone Companies Law & Business Networking Groups Graduate Recruiters Local Sports Organisations Clothes Shops Internal BPP Departments: Careers, Pro Bono, Library Services, IT, Finance, Accommodation, International Student Support, Student Records, Alumni BPP Welcome Party Ticket Sellers
Musicwise I'd like to see Chase and Status, Pendulum, Hadouken, The Prodigy, Faithless, Katy B, Professor Green, Example, NERO, Magnetic Man etc. I'm sure there are a lot more I'd like to have on the freshers week, but these came straight from the top of my head.

Basically just matched my exact taste in music there aha
Northumbria. Fingers crossed, you must get accepted with such an awesome taste in music!
Hahahaaa, yeah, I hear music tastes are very important when studying psychology, I'll make sure to include that when I beg them to let me in on results day
In all serious for freshers I would like to see at one of the fairs financial planners to help prospective students ease into university as it'll be their first time living alone for most. A lot of early mistakes are made before Christmas that are so much harder to rectify down the line. Sound financial guidance and I must stress it is -Independant- as well not hawking bank accounts/credit cards/loans. This theoretically should be arrangeable with the Citizens Advice Bureau.
Along the lines of 'first time living alone' chef demonstrations of quick and easy student meals (possibly tie in with supermarket/cook book here?) would be immensely helpful as I've seen multiple threads on here talking about cooking and complaining about housemates cooking.
