Recharge and Reconnect: Your Summer “Fancy a Cuppa?” is Back!

While campus takes on a more relaxed pace during the summer months, we understand that you might still have questions, want to connect with others, or simply fancy a friendly chat. That’s why we’re excited to announce our “Fancy a Cuppa?” event is available every Wednesday, until the end of July!

More than just a cuppa, these sessions are a fantastic opportunity to meet fellow students from all corners of the university and build those valuable connections that can enrich your student experience. Whether you’re staying in Worcester for summer courses, working on a project, or simply enjoying the quieter campus, “Fancy a Cuppa?” offers a welcoming space to expand your social circle, share your experiences, and maybe even find a new study buddy or a friend for life.

Our weekly “Fancy a Cuppa?” sessions are designed to be a relaxed and welcoming space where you can truly unwind. Alongside a warm drink and friendly faces, we’ll have a selection of mindful colouring sheets available if you fancy a moment of creative calm. For those who enjoy a mental tickle, we’ll also have a variety of puzzles on hand, including crosswords, word searches, and the ever-intriguing word ladder. And if you’re up for some lighthearted fun and friendly competition, just ask – a game of Uno is always ready to go!

Come and hear their stories and gain valuable insights from those who are walking a similar path!The more, the merrier, so please do spread the word to your friends and fellow students who are staying in Worcester this summer.
