Students’ Association. ‘Wellbeing Week’ We will collaborate to run a University wide “Wellbeing Week” from Monday 30th March to Sunday 5th April. This will be coordinated by the Students’ Association’s Wellbeing Subcommittee. This week will aim to highlight the importance of mental wellbeing, with events covering a wide range of wellbeing issues. This week will include wellbeing events from a range of groups, including societies, sports clubs and University halls of residence. This Wellbeing Week project was unfortunately impacted by the Covid-19 pandemic. During these dates, the Students’ Association redirected efforts to develop its online resources. These resources included information on existing support, ideas for how to look after your mental health during lock down and some ways to practice self-care and manage the challenges of lockdown through yoga videos, positive Instagram accounts and arts and craft ideas. These resources have continued to be posted long after the official end of Wellbeing week, including a positive news round up which is posted every Sunday evening.
