Welcome back to Warwick! We hope you all had a relaxing summer break and are raring to go for another year – this is the first of our weekly email updates detailing what’s going on at Warwick Students’ Union throughout the coming term.
If you’re living off-campus this year, make sure you check out our SU Advice Centre team’s Moving In Guide, which contains handy hints and tips which could save you loads of time, money and hassle much further down the line! You can read this year’s guide online HERE.
If you have any questions, just ask by emailing enquiries@warwicksu.com, logging onto our Facebook page facebook.com/warwicksu or hitting us up on Twitter @warwicksu – likewise, if you’re feeling overwhelmed for any reason, please don’t hesitate to get in touch with our free and confidential Student Advice Centre.
As you might expect, there’s loads going on during the first 7 days of term – below is just a fraction of what’s on offer, so make sure you keep checking the SU website warwicksu.com for all the latest updates. We hope you have a great first week back, and look forward to seeing you out and about!
