Of course Oxford Street should be pedestrianised,\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Pot Noodle \u2013 gaming experience for Virtual Freshers<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Coronavirus pandemic has had effect on many live events across the country and Freshers Week is no exception. Many universities have created digital events which will act as opportunity for students to meet and start their university semester.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2018The Digital Welcome\u2019 by Pot Noodle will provide an interactive platform allowing students to sign up to societies and sports teams, connect with local businesses and access brand content.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lori Henebury, media and marketing co-ordinator at the University of Birmingham Guild of Students, said: \u201cIt is really important that new students get to understand what their universities offer outside of just their courses and The Digital Welcome is a brilliant platform which does just that in these unprecedented times.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Ikea \u2013 Vacations in a box <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With travel plans up in the air for many, Ikea have stepped in to help give a slice of summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The holiday themed series is split across four themed boxes to transport users to Cappadocia, the Maldives, Paris or Tokyo. The Paris box features a rattan bread basket and coffee mugs whilst the Maldives box has a potted palm and blue fairy lights for an island atmosphere.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In lieu of Ikea\u2019s usual assembly instruction booklet comes an activity book that includes recipes, playlists and dances to offer people a foreign culture sampler.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>\u2018Golden Hour\u2019 in Manchester <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u2018Golden Hour\u2019 is a short film telling the story of life in lockdown. Produced by Manchester-based creative talent, the film explores how day to day life has been changed, possibly forever. Filmed in the heart of Manchester, the creators wanted to document the eerie events of lockdown, creating a time capsule for future generations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Referring to the time just after sunset or shortly before sunrise. \u201cGolden Hour\u201d is a period of limbo before the day has ended or before a new day begins. As well stay at home waiting for the return of normality, lockdown has been our generation\u2019s \u201cGolden Hour\u201d.
