WHEN: 

23/09/2025

12:00-14:00

WHAT TO EXPECT: 

Students can socialise and share a picnic in the Community Garden. The Community Garden is a really nice greenspace on campus and the start of term is a great time to introduce students to the space. This event also enables students to meet likeminded people and make some new friends. There may also be a short tour of the community garden (the different plants – which one's student can pick) and talk about the allotment spaces and encourage students to ask for a plot. 

There will be a veriety vegan/vegetarian picnic bits and drinks provided by us!
