LONDON: Wellbeing Day

🌿 Starting university is an exciting new chapter — but it can also feel overwhelming. That’s why we’re inviting all our students to join us for our Wellbeing Day, a calming and connective set of activities designed to help you ease into student life with clarity, confidence, and community. 🌿

What to Expect:

We'll be taking over the 1st floor of the Kilburn Campus to deliver a range of activities between 10am and 2pm. Feel free to drop in and out of different sessions. 

🌀 Sound Healing Sessions
Slow down, switch off and recharge through an immersive experience of sound, voice, breath and guided meditation in our dedicated chill zone. It’s a chance to step away from the noise, reconnect with the present moment, find your focus and give yourself some restorative time to simply be.

💆‍♀️ Ambient Listening Sessions
We are partnering with Kinos Studio, a research-led music psychology consultancy, to deliver some ambient listening sessions to promote mindfulness and tranquillity in our dedicated chill zone. Each session will consist of thoughtfully curated ambient music, drawing on
established research into musical features and their proven ability to promote calmness, enhance mood, and focus attention.

 💅 Nail Art Workshop
We'll be joined by the talented nail artist Calypso Monsoon, for a workshop where you'll have the opportunity to design your very own set of press-on nails. All materials will be supplied, just bring yourself and your creativity!

🛍️ Clothes Swap
Looking to refresh your wardrobe but are tired of fast fashion? We'll be holding a clothes swap so that you can give new life to your pre-loved clothing, and find something new to love.

🏥 GP Surgery and Health Charities
For those new to the area, we will have a GP surgery present covering both West and East London, if you're looking for somewhere to register. We always advise new students to do this sooner rather than later!

 🌸 Drop-in Sessions with the Wellbeing Team
Our brilliant Wellbeing team are available to support all of our students along their academic journey. We understand that university life can have its challenges and we want all our students to feel supported so that they can focus on their studies, and make the most of their time here. You will be able to meet and speak to a member of the Wellbeing team during the drop-in sessions.

Bring your items, clean and in good condition, to trade for tokens. Items will be assessed by the Swap Assistants on arrival and displayed on the rails. Once the items are traded for tokens they go straight onto the shop floor, so make sure you are 100% sure before you pass them over. Any items that are left at the end of the day will be donated to charity. 

9.30am-10am | Drop-off only - this gives the team a chance to populate the shop before the doors officially open for swapping.
10am-2.30pm | Rolling drop and swap – you can give & take in this time
2.30pm-3pm | Swap only – no more donations, thanks.
