Spend some time with Liane Thakur, Senior Managerial Counsellor at UCL, learning about how to handle the anxiety of not knowing during a 30-minute presentation and an extended time (up to 30 minutes) for trying things out and talking through your questions. We recommend you reserve your spot using the link below, however you will be able to drop-in on the day too.

Study Spaces at UCL East

No matter where your course is based, the study spaces at UCL East are open to all students - just tap in using your UCL ID. With lots of empty study space, the amazing views of the Olympic Stadium and Park, and close proximity to the shopping area of Stratford Westfield, many students enjoy coming to UCL East to get some work done. 

To explore the various study spaces at East, take a look at this webpage that the SU has put together.

Why not try out the study spaces at UCL East on 17 July, so you can take part in some of the optional activities listed above?


Find out what else is happening during Summer Wellbeing Sessions, running from 14 - 25 July.

Student Support and Wellbeing Services strive to give all UCL students the chance to try something new, make friends and develop wellbeing skills for university and beyond. We hope to see you at one of our events soon!
