Moreton Hall is inviting businesses, industry professionals and organisations from across the region to take part in its annual Careers and Universities Fair
Moreton Hall is inviting businesses, industry professionals and organisations from across the region to take part in its annual Careers and Universities Fair, helping to inspire the next generation as they explore their future career and education opportunities.
Taking place on Wednesday, February 10 from 10am–1pm, the Fair welcomes students from schools across Shropshire and beyond. With over 60 exhibitors, including top UK universities, employers, industry professionals, gap year providers and alumni, the event offers valuable advice and insight into life beyond Sixth Form.
Previous exhibitors have included Arla, Aico, Hatchers Solicitors, Source design agency, and BCHN Architects, alongside organisations such as the British Army, NHS specialists from The Robert Jones and Agnes Hunt Orthopaedic Hospital, Handelsbanken and HarperCollins Publishers.
Unlike traditional recruitment fairs, the focus is not on filling vacancies, but on opening minds to possibilities. Exhibitors have the opportunity to showcase their industries, share experiences and highlight the skills and qualifications needed to succeed in their sectors.
Moreton Hall is keen to welcome exhibitors from a wide range of sectors, including:
- Hospitality, lifestyle and service industries
- Creative industries
- Construction, utilities and infrastructure services
- Digital business and professional services
- Health, wellbeing and human services
- Government and public sector industries
- Apprenticeship opportunities
For businesses and organisations, exhibiting offers an opportunity to raise their profile, connect with local schools and demonstrate a commitment to supporting future talent. Whether a small independent business or a national organisation, sharing industry knowledge and experience could inspire a young person to explore a career they had never previously considered.
Michael Brewer, Principal of Moreton Hall, commented: “Our Careers and Universities Fair is about opening doors and inspiring young people to explore the opportunities available to them. Every conversation has the potential to spark an ambition, and we warmly encourage local businesses to join us in helping shape the aspirations of the next generation.”
