✨ Fam Visit | New AVS Member Spotlight ✨

We’ve had a lovely visit to our newest member, University of Derby, and honestly… what a cracking addition to the AVS family.

Huge thanks to @Charlotte Alton and great to meet @Joanna Atkinson too.

We had a brilliant show round giving us the full low-down on all their spaces – The Cavendish (which opened late last year) is just WOW, an absolutely stunning space, along with all the other options too – brand new, practical, flexible and refreshingly straightforward for event planners.
