“Inspirational speakers,both enlightening and entertaining. The audience was captivated and takena back with the experiences of the speakers, their backgrounds and where their determination and drive in life has got them to where they are today. I found the format of the speed dating beneficial as I managed to speak to around 17 different University representatives and build a rapport with new Societies and Committee members. Always a joy attending these National Bright Futures Events”
