23-27 October
Hey everyone,
I hope you are all enjoying the first term of the academic year! As you all know the start of a new academic year is exciting, but it can also be a bit overwhelming. The rush of Welcome Week may have left you with more questions than answers, and that's completely okay. Your concerns are valid, and I want to help you adjust to university life and your new surroundings, therefore I have planned a week full of events and activities designed to help you – it's called Wobble Week!
Wobble Week runs from 23-27 October, just before a well-deserved Study Week. Whether you find yourself icing a biscuit, trying your hand at a new sport or enjoying some friendly Pub Quiz competition, it's all about helping you to relax, have fun and meet new people.
Each day, you'll also have the opportunity to chat with a staff member from the SU or University if you're having a wobble or simply fancy a chat!
Not all students settle into university life with ease. Some students may still be feeling uncertain and unsettled. So, I have organised this week with you in mind, offering a variety of events and activities to help you wobble a little less and smile a little more.
So, if you're still trying to make new friends, find your place, and adjust to the university environment, Wobble Week provides you with another chance to connect with others, learn, and receive support.
Embrace the support, embrace the fun!

Next up in our Wobble Week 101 series is ‘Meet, Greet and Get Settled’. Each day of wobble week brings an opportunity to chat with SU representatives or university staff members who understand the student experience and are here to help you thrive.

University life can be both exciting and terrifying (often at the same time!). Juggling lectures, academic commitments, and deadlines alongside friendships, relationships, sports, societies, and part-time employment can often make striking the balance between work and life feel impossible.

From 11 November to 15 November, join us for a week filled with events, activities, and friendly faces designed to help you find your footing, make connections, and discover the incredible resources available to you at university.

It's easy to overlook the importance of maintaining a healthy lifestyle while you're at university. However, there is a strong connection between physical activity, healthy eating, and mental wellbeing so it's vital that you look after yourself on all fronts!
