Summer is finally here. For most of you it will mean the end of your academic year with us, but for those of you who will still be on campus we wanted to share some useful information about how student services, support and activities will operate over the next few months.
Staying in halls over summer?
We have now confirmed all summer bookings and contract extension requests, for those staying in halls. While you are still living in halls, our housekeepers will continue to visit you Monday – Friday as normal.
The accommodation team are here for you. All year round. If you need support or advice, please reach out by emailing [email protected].

We recommend checking your local GP’s website for their opening times over the summer break. Remember you can call 111 or visit 111.nhs.uk to get medical help 24/7.
You can get in touch with the Wellbeing team by emailing [email protected] or calling 01695 650988. You can also visit the Wellbeing webpages for more information, access to self-help resources and details about local healthcare services.
Out of hours, the Samaritans provide confidential support 24 hours a day if you are in any distress. You can reach them on 116 123.
Remember, Togetherall is free and available 24/7. The site provides a safe space online. Get things off your chest, explore your feelings, get creative and learn how to self-manage your mental health and wellbeing. If you want to find support then check out Student Space for guidance.
However you are feeling, help and guidance is available. Explore a range of trusted information, services and tools to help you with the challenges of student life. If you need urgent support, Lancashire and South Cumbria NHS Foundation Trust’s new Mental Health Urgent Response Line is available on 0800 953 0110. Lines are operated by trained mental health professionals who will offer help and advice. This number can also be used by anyone looking for advice if they are worried about someone else.
