Health and wellbeing

We’re proud to offer purpose-built accessible rooms across our villages. Accessible accommodation is about so much more than a room with certain adaptations though. That’s why we work with students to create an environment they can feel safe and happy in, no matter their disability or needs.

Discover our accessible accommodation

We want you to feel comfortable here. That’s why you can choose to live with likeminded students in an alcohol-free or Kosher flat, subject to availability. We also offer recovery flats as part of the University’s Better Than Well programme, which supports students living with or recovering from addiction.

To find out more, please get in touch.

We recommend registering with a local GP in your first few weeks with us, so you can get help as soon as possible if you start to feel unwell. We also strongly encourage you to get vaccinated against meningitis and COVID-19 before you start university. 

Registering with a GP

We are an allergy-aware university and are here to help you feel safe and supported. From top tips on sharing a kitchen to advice on how to how to tell your flatmates about your allergy, we’ve got you covered.
