The annual Hereford and Worcester UCAS Convention will take place on the St John’s campus on Friday 21st March. This is a major event with over 4200 visitors attending from schools across both counties.
Areas around the Sports Centre, Drama Studios and Gym will be exceptionally busy on Friday 21st March. In order to minimise disruption for colleagues and students at St John’s we have made the following arrangements for the set-up of the event and for the day itself.
Traffic Management – Friday 21st March
Please use the Malvern Gate entrance. Access through the Severn Gate (Hylton Rd) will be for UCAS permit holders only.
Vehicle access through campus via the Malvern Gate will be restricted on Friday 21st March. Traffic will be allowed only as far as the post room.

Car parks M (main), G (Binyon) and R (Netball courts/Sports Centre car park) will all be closed from 6pm on Thursday 20th March – Friday 21st March inclusive.
If you are a disabled/blue badge holder which necessitates you using these car parks please contact Tom Taylor, Head of Security and Campus Services who will be able to work with you to identify suitable alternative parking.

Thank you to all staff and students for your understanding and support. This event is an invaluable opportunity for local students to find out more about higher education, as well as allowing us to showcase the University and its facilities.
