Advice Keep Going

Keep Going
Hey all you cool cats and kittens. We are currently in some uncertain times, but we are still here at the SU (albeit remotely) to help you stay positive, get through this and make sure your views are represented to the University.
If you’re feeling uncertain, disconnected from University life whilst at home, then our Keep Going online hub is for you! Whether you want to know top tips for home studying with Keep Learning, keep boredom at bay with Keep Entertained, care for your mental wellbeing with Keep Mindful or know how to keep fit indoors with Keep Active, your SU has something to keep you going while off-campus. Just click on what catches your eye and get started today.
Whatever you choose to do, please take care of yourselves and follow all the NHS and Government guidelines. You can read up on these below

Keep Learning
Studying off campus without being able to pull all-nighters in the library may seem quite daunting for lots of you! We want to help you keep learning and making the most of your degree, even from the comfort of your home!
This page will be updated with new content as we gather and create new resources, make sure to keep an eye here on our website or on our social channels so you don't miss out!

Keep Mindful
These can be stressful times indeed, so it’s especially important that we all make time to ensure positive mental health and wellbeing. We’ve got a few tools that we believe could help.

Keep Talking
Now more than ever, it’s important you remain social with friends and family for your own wellbeing as well as be aware of other services you can reach out to (including us here at your SU) to ensure you are fully supported.

Keep Active
With gyms closed and social distancing being enforced, it’s hard to know how to keep active. But do not fear, we have some great resources for you!

Keep Entertained
Being cooped up is boring eh?! Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered. Keep yourself entertained with these resources.

Keep Cooking
We should all aim to keep healthy whilst at home during this time. Part of keeping healthy is a healthy diet, but we know that not everyone may be the next Gordan Ramsay, so we’ve ensured that you have some resources to get you going.
