Self-isolation guide

Zoom drop-in sessions

The Wellbeing Service will be hosting a daily Zoom drop-in for anyone self-isolating who would like to have some moral support, share ideas (and maybe the odd moan) and seek advice. It is taking place every day, Monday-Friday at 10.30am and will be facilitated by a member of the wellbeing team. The drop-in is open to all students who are self-isolating, whether you are in halls, private accommodation or staying in your family home.

If you would like to come along please email studentwellbeing@hud.ac.uk and we will send you the Zoom link.
