De-Stress

Take a Break This Summer with SRC’s De-Stress Programme

Whilst exams may be over for some, we know that many postgraduates and other students will be working over the summer months. That is why the SRC are offering a range of free events, activities and resources designed to help all students take a break, recharge and de-stress ✅

That’s why we’re offering a range of free events and activities designed to help all students take a break, recharge, and manage stress this spring (15th June - 31st July 2026).

Whether you’re looking for a quiet space to relax, a chance to connect with others, or a fun activity to take your mind off studying, you’ll find something in our diverse programme.

On this page, you’ll find a calendar of de-stress events - sign up for as many or as few as you like!
