BGU Enquiries Team launch hotline to support you through Clearing
With Results Day next Thursday, everyone at Bishop Grosseteste University (BGU) hopes you get the results you need to get into your first choice university, allowing you to sit back, relax and get excited about starting your adventure. If you don’t get the results you require you may need to go through Clearing, which offers students who have not yet secured a place the opportunity to apply for ones that are still available. The Clearing process can seem daunting and stressful but the Enquiries Team at BGU are doing everything they can to ensure that process is smooth and hassle-free. Dedicated Phone Line Often one of the most comforting things when dealing with unexpected changes is being able to talk directly to someone (rather than filling out online forms or dealing answer machines). That is why from 8 am on the morning of Clearing until 10 pm, members of the Enquiries Team will be manning the phone lines to make sure you can quickly get the support you need. The Hotline number is (01522) 583698 and through it, you’ll not only be able to get all your Clearing questions answered, but you may also be able to sort a university place for yourself. WhatsApp Support If you’re nervous about phoning the Hotline is not the only way to contact BGU to get your Clearing questions answered. You can also directly talk to members of the Enquiries Team through WhatsApp on 07598142383. Just as with the Hotline you can ask any questions you want and may even be able to secure your place through it. Clearing Open Day If after Clearing you’re still not confident on where you want to study, or if you’ve decided BGU is the place for you, the University will be hosting an open day on Friday 17 August so you can experience BGU first hand. Lecturers will be available to give you a taste of what the courses have to offer and you’ll be to access all the facilities available at BGU including accommodation, gym and leisure spaces along with the impressively stocked Library and university archive. Open Day is the best way to learn more about BGU and you can book your place by following this link. -

Your Opportunity to Help BGU Bring the History of Lincoln’s Female Footballers to Life
Staff and students at Bishop Grosseteste University (BGU) are excited to be working in partnership with the Lincoln Mystery Plays and the Lady Imps Supporters Association to shed a new light on the fascinating, and sometimes controversial, history of Women’s Football in Lincolnshire. With a legacy dating back over 100 years the Lincoln Ladies, or Lady Imps, are one of the Sport’s most enduring teams, gaining huge popularity during the Great War before an FA ban at the end of the conflict forced them to fight for their survival. As the nation marks the centenary of the end of The Great War, BGU and the Lincoln Mystery Plays Company will be curating an exhibition along with an original play ‘The World at Her Feet’ which they hope will not only bring the extraordinary stories of the trailblazing Lady Imps to light, but also inspire a new generation to follow in their footsteps. The exhibition, which follows BGU’s exploration of Women’s Voting Rights in the county, is to be held at Lincoln Central Library and will be open to the public from the 27th of September whilst ‘The World at Her Feet’ will be on show at the Drill Hall from the 11th of November. Together they will offer a unique viewpoint on a fascinating corner of local and sporting history and you now have the opportunity to be a part of it. The Research team at BGU, led by Dr Andrew Jackson, yesterday launched their appeal to local residents for any stories, photographs and memorabilia they might be willing to share with the exhibition. Speaking to Melvyn Prior on BBC Radio Lincolnshire they encouraged any one with memories or items they would like included in this unique project to contact andrew.jackson@bishopg.ac.uk or ladyimps@mail.com. The Research Team at BGU are dedicated to preserving and championing the history of Lincolnshire and its residents. You can keep up to date with all their activities via our website or, if you would like to get involved yourself, you can contact our Enquiries Team to find out how to start your new adventure. -
