Consulting with Students. 151. The foundation of all outreach work at the University is our student body, and our Colleges provide a locus for the activities in which our current students engage with our target students. Almost all access activities involve undergraduate students as guides and role models. Durham has a Student Ambassador scheme that offers a high level of training and support to enable Durham students to engage with the fair access agenda. Currently over 40% of our Durham Student Ambassadors were themselves part of either Supported Progression or the ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Trust programme. 152. Increasingly Student Ambassadors are being included in the planning process and are creating more activities that are student-led as part of Durham’s residential access activities programme. We now use very few external providers for social activities and rely on student directed activities that simulate the life of a typical Durham student. In this way we can directly connect the student voice with the messages we give about the wider student experience at Durham.
