'1 Herefordshirea 0800 032 1986 Free ADVERTISEMENT FEATURE THE Hereford University Cen- tre, a co-funded project be- tween Herefordshire & Ludlow College (HLC) and the Univer- sity of Worcester, encourages and promotes higher education for all, and offers a calendar of free events for the local com— munity. The centre is also a good first point of call for anyone with questions and queries about higher education. The centre has had its first public lecture Zombies & Sus- tainability, by Dr Mikel J. Ko- ven, and its first A-level history lecture Jack the Ripper, by Dr Darren Oldridge. These events give the audi- ence a unique opportunity to experience what it could be like to study higher education and to feel inspired by diverse new subjects. Joe Nurse, a local student who attended Dr Koven’s lecture commented: “I think this lec- ture has been a fantastic and valuable opportunity; it was of great quality and it was free! “If all of them are this good then I will keep coming to them." On January 28, 2016, the Her- eford University Centre will host its first research seminar LudlowCollege Enquiries@hlcollege.ac.uk at the Hereford Campus, Witch- craft, Magic and the Devil in the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries, by Dr Darren Old- ridge.

The centre has also co-ordinat- ed a performance of the Greek comedy Lysistrata which will be performed on January 21, 2016, by University of Worces- ‘ neducationala ‘\ ‘3‘.
