    • give lectures at a higher education institution, as long as it’s not a part-time or full-time role

    • provide advocacy in a particular area of law
    • take part in arts, entertainment or sporting activities including broadcasting
    • take part in fashion modelling assignments
  • want to come to the UK to do specific paid work without having to be sponsored under the points-based visa system · meet the other eligibility requirements
