Bedfordshire Âé¶¹´«Ã½AV Logo

During the uncertainty of the global Covid19 pandemic, our Âé¶¹´«Ã½AV’s student and staff community has done some fantastic things which we wanted to celebrate.

From volunteering to fundraising, to advising public health policy and to simply making positive memories – these encouraging stories have been the backbone behind our 2020 #ProudToBeBeds campaign.

Take a look around the rooms of our virtual gallery which includes photos, news and social media highlights to find out how Bedfordshire’s students and staff have been making a difference...
