The recording from the latest  Burnley Linked Meeting (August) is now available to watch.

This meeting brings together partners from across Burnley to share important updates, connect on local priorities, and discuss ongoing work supporting communities across the town.

We are delighted to invite organisations to join the University's new Volunteering and Employability Platform. Designed to create stronger connections between volunteering, student development, and graduate employment, the platform brings together opportunities and services in one place.
By registering, your organisation will be able to create a single profile that can be used to promote volunteering opportunities as well as paid roles, helping you reach a wider pool of talented and motivated students and graduates. The platform offers a streamlined and efficient way to engage with the University and showcase the opportunities available within your organisation.

What is the Little Legends Olympics?
​
In collaboration with our trusted community partners and our group of young 
advisors, the Little Legends Olympics will show case a variety of sports in a festival 
theme. The key aim is to encourage participation and an opportunity to try multiple 
sports in one day. The focus is on fun and engaging activities for each sport, 
regardless of skill and ability. 
We will have access to several tennis courts at Burnley Tennis Club, and the sports 
hall, field and astro turf at Blessed Trinity College.
