Everyone experiences a 'wobble' at university but we're here to support you and help you find a sense of belonging. Wobble Week takes place from Monday 28 October - Friday 8 November with plenty of events to get involved in across the university.

Join us in libraries for a week of activities and events during Wobble Week to help support, inspire, and entertain you, including:

Make a bookmark, take a bookmark

We’ll be placing bookmark making kits in all our libraries for some fun crafting time in your breaks. Find them in our Library Games Zones or at the libraries front desk. We’re encouraging you to design bookmarks for your peers with motivational messages. Leave your bookmark for another student to take away and add some positivity to their day, and take a bookmark that another student has made that brings you some joy!

Artefacts in Libraries

Ever wanted to get hands on experience with ancient artefacts? Our very own University Museum will be visiting our libraries with a selection of historical artefacts for you to handle.
