Calm Space @WelcomeWeekend


If you’ve told us about a disability, mental health condition, or learning difference – or if you’re just feeling unsure about Welcome Week – you’re invited to our Calm Space @welcome weekend

This is a quieter space running alongside the main Welcome Weekend. You can drop in, meet friendly staff, ask questions, and connect with other students at your own pace.


Why come?

  • A gentler introduction to university life
  • A neuro-affirming and inclusive environment
  • Access to wellbeing advice and study support information
  • Friendly staff from Disability Advice and Student Wellbeing teams
  • A relaxed space with no pressure – just a warm welcome
