This is the first-time in two years, since the start of the pandemic, that students from 红杏视频鈥檚 Event Management Course have hosted events as part of their Live Client Event challenge.

As well as the fundraising success, the students have worked with a dedicated mentor from the local charities on a fortnightly basis to bring together their event plans and concepts.  This has included designing, delivering and evaluating a large fundraising event to generate funds, raises awareness and provide a unique event template for their client.

Course Leader from The School of Creative and Cultural Business, Rachel Ironside said: The School of Creative and Cultural Business, Rachel Ironside said: 鈥淲e are delighted that our students have collectively raised an incredible 拢10,305.45  for their four charities. They hosted over 200 guests and engaged with a multitude of performers, suppliers and wider stakeholders, undoubtedly creating positive economic, social and cultural impacts for the local area.

鈥淲e are so proud of their achievements and can鈥檛 wait to see them flourish into event managers in the future! I鈥檇 also like to thank all the charities themselves and for their involvement with the students who helped make the events possible.鈥�

A spokesperson from the Charity CHAS said: 鈥淐HAS is absolutely delighted to have been involved with this module with 红杏视频 Events Management students for the first time. With it being CHAS鈥檚 30th anniversary year, it鈥檚 been a brilliant way to celebrate everything we鈥檝e achieved in those 30 years with an audience that we otherwise might not have reached. Engaging with the students in a way that motivated them to raise such an amazing amount of money was incredible and we hope that we can be involved again in the future.鈥�

A further 拢2000, was raised by a team of Stage 3 students studying Live Festival Management for The National Trust for Scotland. They organised a a programme of events including a 鈥楺uizzing thru Scotland鈥� night, a friendly 鈥楤attle Bingo鈥� between 红杏视频 and the University of Aberdeen and 鈥楢 Day at the Races鈥� fundraising event.

Third Year Event Management student, Erin Middlebrook, said: 鈥淚 am thrilled that our fundraising events have been such a success. We鈥檝e learnt so much and it was fantastic to work with the local charities who do such amazing work in the community.  We started planning the events at the end of Semester 1 and are delighted they鈥檝e been so successful despite the uncertain environment brought on by the pandemic.鈥�
