New year, new experiences 💚

Not everyone meets their best mates in the first semester (and no, not everyone knows their way around campus yet!).

We’re with you every step of your University journey, whether you want to meet some new mates, try something new or just have a place to relax between lectures.

Making friends: It’s never to let to meet your besties! 👯

You might feel like everyone around you knows way more people than you, but there’s so many students looking to make new friends too!

If you’re looking for ways to meet some new mates, societies are a great place to start.

Get to know them a little better at our Refreshers Fair on Friday 31st January!
