AccessHE Week 2018

Now in its fourth year, AccessHE Week took place between 9 – 15 July 2018. The purpose of AccessHE Week was to highlight the work being carried out across the capital by AccessHE and its members in extending access into and through higher education (HE) in London. The week also allowed those working in access the opportunity to reaffirm the importance of social mobility through HE progression for the economic and social well-being of the city.

AccessHE Week is a fantastic opportunity to bring together representatives from different sectors including higher education institutions, schools and colleges, student unions, local government and the business community. Here is what took place:
