With more lecturer staff strike dates coming up in May and June, we're hosting a dedicated info session about strikes on Wednesday 15th May at 12-1pm online via teams.

This is an online meeting open to any students, where you'll be able to ask questions and get the latest info about the strike action and ongoing resulting boycott.

Mental Health Awareness Week happens every year, and it's the biggest opportunity for the whole of the UK to come together to focus on getting good mental health.

Our Mental Health Check-in stall will be running at our Milton Road Campus on Tuesday 14th May between 12pm - 2pm.

Over the course of February, March and April 2024, we asked students to respond to our annual Student Life Survey. We're really grateful to everyone who filled out the survey and helped us great insight into the issues students are facing right now, from housing, to travel and finances.

One of the best things we can do for our mental health and wellbeing is to be active – it's a natural mood booster! Our bodies release feel-good hormones when we're active that can also reduce anxiety and stress and help us sleep better. Any amount of physical activity is good for you so do not worry if you need to start off easy. The most important thing is to do something you enjoy as you're more likely to keep doing it.

Join ‘Big Walks’ led by our Active Campus Coordinator, Xsara Murray. Explore designated walking routes at each campus, enjoy fresh air, local scenery and meet new people.

• Thursday 16th May Milton Road
