We've also hired\u00a0several new casual members of staff, and we're delighted they've joined the team.<\/p>\n<p>Elsewhere in AHS, we've launched a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bath.ac.uk\/corporate-information\/parade-bar-and-grill-menu\/\">new menu<\/a> in\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bath.ac.uk\/locations\/parade-bar-and-grill\/\">Parade Bar and Grill<\/a>. The venue will be closed between 1 August and 9 September while a new extraction system is fitted in the kitchen, so head over there in July to get your teeth into the new menu before the new academic year begins.<\/p>\n<p>And with the new term in mind, student accommodation\u00a0application have been received and are currently being worked through by our student Accommodation team\u00a0as we move towards the arrival of our new student population in September. It's hard to believe that our new students will be here in just a few short weeks, when AHS will return to our student-focussed business.<\/p>\n<p>In the meantime, we've got lots more guests to look after.
