Here4U: Your specialised wellbeing programme

Posted 5 months ago

Weโ€™re here to support you throughout your time in halls. ๐Ÿซ‚

Life at University can feel overwhelming, ๐Ÿ™‡๐Ÿป living in a new place, finding new friends and managing coursework deadlines can be stressful for anyone! At Halls Life we understand the unique challenges students face and thatโ€™s why weโ€™re Here4U. ๐Ÿ’œ

What is Here4U?๏ปฟ

Here4U is a specialist wellbeing programme, dedicated to support and assist you throughout your stay in our halls. We want to help you relax, recharge and rest assured that you feel supported throughout your studies and stay with us.

Here4U is run by our friendly Halls Life Student Wellbeing Coordinator, Marco! ๏ปฟ

โ€œI am 25 years old and moved to London 7 years ago. I graduated from the London College of Fashion in 2022 and have worked for Halls Life for the past year and a half. Since graduating, I was recently promoted to Student Wellbeing Coordinator at Halls Life. I'm Here4U (literally) throughout your stay in halls, to provide you support with cost of living and your essentials, from free food, to period products and laundry powder. I'm here to deliver you a moment to unwind and relax from the stress, from puppy therapy to yoga classes, with our wellbeing bags at reception and much more, aiming to give you a peaceful Uni experience for you and your flatmates at UAL. ๐Ÿ’œโ€ ๏ปฟ
