NTU Elefairy Update

Hi, my name is Mavis and I’m another member of the NTU Elefairy team in partnership with the #Grads4Nottm scheme! During my time at Elefair I’ve had the exciting opportunity to get involved with work not only in relation to my field of interest, law but also a creative field.

I was able to apply my existing knowledge of employment law I acquired at university to the task I was given. I then went on to speak to a solicitor at Premier Legal Solicitors who gave me some further guidance on the matter. This gave me a real insight into how advising a client as a qualified legal practitioner would be like. It has also opened my eyes to the possibility of pursuing employment law as my area of specialisation in the future.

During my first week I tapped into my creative side and developed design ideas and visual concepts for the Elefair Glastonbury stall alongside my team mate Catherine. Although this line of work is not related to my primary interest in law, I found it to be an enjoyable task which left me open to alternative and more creative business ideas. The brief we were set was to create an eye-catching piece to attract people to the Elefair stall. We opted for a tunnel idea, creating a statement focal point for festival goers to walk through and discover the treasures of Elefair inside. The vibrant colours and scale of the final piece we designed and built will definitely make the stall stand out from the crowd.

Through team work we came up with something we can truly call our own and hopefully the first of many more to come during our short but sweet time at Elefair!
