Our room numbers are located in the schedule section. However, the numbering system maybe confusing for some people. If the room is 9201 for example, the 9 means the the building (which is always the cantor), the 2 would be the floor you are on. The floor for this instance would be the 2nd floor. The final two numbers 01 suggest the room number on that floor. There will be directions on the day and feel free to ask a member of our team.
Just go to the schedule section, pick your chosen event and click either 'book now' or 'guest booking' (book now is for Sheffield Hallam students and staff only). Then, pick your event and follow the instructions on screen.
Pathways is located in the Cantor building at Sheffield Hallam. If you are wondering where the building is based, please have a look at our map and address here.
