"What can you learn from a Cat and a Prince that creates value for campus-community connections?"
York University (Toronto, Canada) has been supporting campus-community research outreach and engagement since 2006. David Phipps, Director of Research Services and Knowledge Exchange will speak on his experiences developing Canada’s first knowledge mobilization unit that is integrated into the university’s researcher infrastructure.
After 5 years working closely with their community partner, the United Way of York Region, David will reflect on the top 10 lessons learned taking inspiration from Machiavelli and Dr. Seuss.
This seminar is free and open to all! It will take place in room E512 Checkland Building on the Falmer Campus. Tea and coffee will be available. If you would like to attend, please RSVP to This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it

Description
Making your way to Falmer
Due to the severe shortage of parking spaces on the Falmer site, we recommend that delegates travel to the event by public transport if at all possible.
If you need parking then please contact Suze Cruttwell This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it with your car registration number and she will see if any visitor parking spaces are available.
The Falmer campus is approximately 7 km from Brighton city centre. Cycle lanes run from Falmer to the city centre. Falmer railway station is a short walk, Moulsecoomb is one stop away and Brighton mainline station three. There is a frequent bus service into central Brighton.
Car parking on campus is limited and a parking permit is required to park on the site. Permits are only given to drivers who can demonstrate that car travel is essential. A free shuttle bus operates from Varley, and a Park and Ride scheme from Moulsecoomb.
By bike
- Cycle lanes run from the city centre along the A270 Lewes Road to Falmer. Cycle stands monitored by CCTV are provided on site.
By bus
- The 25, 25A and 25C connect the Falmer campus with the centre of Brighton. The 25A then goes on to Hove and Portslade. The 25C links Falmer with east Brighton including Kemptown, the Royal Sussex hospital and the Marina.
- Visit the Brighton and Hove Company website for timetables and more on special ticket deals for students.
By train
- There are up to four trains an hour from Moulsecoomb to Falmer (4 minutes journey time), two an hour direct to Eastbourne (35 minutes journey time) and regular direct and connecting services to Hastings (70 minutes average journey time).
- Visit the National Rail Enquiries website for timetables and passenger information.
- Due to construction work, access for wheelchair access will no longer be available from the platform adjacent to the university, i.e. Brighton bound. Instead, a free taxi pick-up and drop-off service will now operate from the station side, i.e. Lewes bound. You can find out more about temporary disabled access to Falmer here.
Park and Ride
- There is a Park and Ride service from Moulsecoomb to the Falmer campus. The Park and Ride spaces are marked with a thick blue line and can be found in the Watts north car park.
