We took over 50 young people to Oxford University. The purpose of the visit was to inspire them to strive for excellence and to believe that Oxford University is where they can belong and thrive too.

The trip offered young people the opportunity for the first time to understand how to gain admission to Oxford University, the application process, what evidence they need to gather to boost their chances. They had an academic taster session and tour the colleges and facilities too. It was a great experience for many of them. To some of them, it was their first time to leave the city of Hull.
