The Students' Union have organised a range of activities to support De-stress week including:

Tuesday 2nd May

  • Giant Mandala Drawing sessions (Student Zone, 10:00-17:00): Mandalas are spiritual symbols from Buddhism and Hinduism; these beautiful and detailed patterns are easy to get lost in, distracting from stress.

  • Mr Whippy Ice-Cream Van (On Campus, 12:00-16:00): Cool down with an classic ice cream and take a break with a flake in front of the Student Zone!


Wednesday 3rd May

  • Gladiator Joust Inflatable (On Campus, 12:00-14:00): Enjoy a high adrenaline game using a combination of balance, skill, and coordination using only the large pugil stick to defend yourself and knock your opponent off their podium.


Thursday 4th May

  • Iyengar Yoga Workshop (Sports Hall, 18:30-20:00): Relax and rejuvenate with a music meditation class using Yoga Nidra. Mats will be provided.


Friday 5th May
