Residence Life Open Door

Residence Life provides support to off-campus students too. You might encounter issues whilst living in privately rented accommodation or just want some friendly advice.

Res Life Open Door is a drop-in service facilitated by Residents’ Assistants for students who live off campus and who are looking to get advice or guidance on university living experiences. Whether you want to have a chat, don’t know where to find the solution to your problem, or have a question to ask the Residence Life team, our Residents’ Assistants are here to help. The drop-in is accessible via Zoom, every Wednesday between 12pm–1pm during term time.

We'll be using Zoom to host this facility, join us using the Meeting IDs below:
