What are Have a Go activities?
‘Have a Go’ activities provide visitors to the event with a ‘bite-size’ taster of a skill. ‘Have a Go’ activities can ignite
passion, offering hands-on tangible experiences that will introduce visitors to skills they have never previously
considered as possible career options. If you need help planning your ‘Have a Go’ contact us.
We want visitors to be inspired and amazed by the range of skills that help shape our everyday lives, opening their
eyes to the wealth of career possibility available to them.
Remember, sitting behind a table with some leaflets is not permitted! If you need help, please contact us and we can
help you make your stand interactive.
When planning your ‘Have a Go’ consider the following:

Does it have ‘wow’ factor?

How will your business / organisation benefit from delivering a Have a Go?

How long will the activity take, and how many visitors will the activity accommodate at any one time?

The event will attract over 3500 young people, from 14-25 years, with the majority being 14-18 years. Can the
activity be managed logistically, what resources will be required?

Does it comply with health and safety regulations?

Don’t be afraid to ‘think big’. We have a large undercover space to fill with opportunities to bring in vehicles and
equipment – talk to us about your ideas at an early stage.
