Please check this page regularly, as sometimes we need to change the times and locations of Welcome events. During Welcome Week, we would recommend that you check your timetable at the start of each day.
Freshers' Week
The Students' Union also runs optional Freshers' Week activities you might be interested in.
Occasionally, there may be a scheduling clash between your departmental activities and the SU events during Freshers' Week. However, many SU events are repeated or run over several days, giving you the flexibility to attend at a different time.
