Support and safety
Wellbeing: homesickness
While university is an exciting time and often a fresh start, it's also common to experience homesickness. You are not alone and it is a very normal aspect of transitioning. Take a look at our tips on how to understand and approach these feelings. We also have other helpful resources for you such as, Managing Transitions and Settling In, and a masterclass on Managing Change.
Covid-19 guidance
You'll find Covid-19 guidance on our Stay Safe Hub including what to do if you feel unwell, practical advice on food shopping, and how to stay safe in your accommodation.
Shopping trolleys
A reminder that shopping trolleys must not be removed from the grounds of supermarkets. Please leave your trolley at the supermarket once you've finished shopping to respect other shoppers and to help keep our local areas tidy.
