Today, we are bringing a list of tips to do with overall wellbeing and healthcare whilst at university.
Being at uni is such a fun experience, but it can also be stressful and it's okay to recognise that and make sure you build up a list of different resources you may need!

Some final tips from us as Freshers Week events begin!
There is a lot of hype around Freshers Week, and it is often an incredible week where you have so much fun, but know that if you find it difficult, you are not alone. Our previous post has wellbeing advice.

Glasgow was at the centre of the global economy when coal and oil transformed the world. The city's landscape is a product of forms of industrial capitalism that were propelled by fossil fuels. Join me for a free carbon walking tour this Saturday at 10am. https://t.co/DlO4xVWh2w
