Finding the Freshers Helpers |
 |
Freshers helpers will be available from when you arrive at Bucks. They will be dressed in orange t-shirts and will look a little like 'superheros'.
Keep your eyes open for the helpers and if you have any questions then ask them - they are there to provide you with help and assistance.
