Welcome Fair is only open to current King’s Students. However, we recognize that for many students Welcome Fair can be an intimidating or overwhelming event to attend on your own. To combat this, we are introducing Guided Meetups run by current King’s students with similar lived experience as you. These meetups are designed to help you to meet new people and become part of the King’s community. At the start of the meetup your Peer Guide will run a quick game to help everyone get to know each other, before your group heads into the venue. We have created 7 different meetups for students with similar lived experiences:

• SOLD OUT Meetup General (open to all students): 10:45-12:45 or 14:45-16:45, The Shed - Guy's Campus
• SOLD OUT Meetup International Students: 10:45-12:45 or 14:45-16:45, The Shed - Guy's Campus
• SOLD OUT Meetup Mature Students: 10:00-12:00, The Shed - Guy's Campus
• SOLD OUT Meetup Disabled Students: 10:15-12:15, Old Billingsgate - Accessible Entrance
• SOLD OUT Meetup Black Students: 14:00-16:00, The Shed - Guy's Campus
• SOLD OUT Meetup Postgraduate Students: 10:00-12:00, The Shed - Guy's Campus
• SOLD OUT Meetup Distance Learners: 14:00-16:00, The Shed - Guy's Campus
• SOLD OUT Meetup LGBT+ Students: 14:00-16:00, The Shed - Guy's Campus
