For student wellbeing! Against misery and fatigue!
Are you feeling tired and stressed out? Have you neglected your own wellbeing and exercise because you’re too busy? Are you in need of some pampering? Don’t worry, because ISYY’s Wellbeing Week will take place on 30.9.–6.10.
During the Wellbeing Week, the Student Union (ISYY) offers its members a variety of nice, relaxing activities to take your mind off the stresses of everyday life. The programme includes a variety of outdoor activities, sports, culture and some clubbing as well! Most activities are free or very reasonably priced (see the details next to each activity).
See the events listings here to find the activities that suit you best. Information can also be found on our Facebook page and at the weekly newsletter Monday Mail.
