Welcome to your Residence Life community
Moving into University-managed halls of residence is the beginning of something very exciting. You'll become part of a much bigger, supportive, fun and vibrant community of like-minded people. However, starting at university can mean living independently for the first time, which can feel very daunting.
To help you settle in, we've put together an exclusive Residence Life events programme for students who are living in University-managed accommodation. We provide a wide range of free events, day trips, competitions and giveaways to help you meet new people, explore your new home and try new things.
We aim to offer a range of events and activities to cater to everyone's taste and hobbies. Previous events have included sunset cruises, cinema trips, ghost tours, pottery painting, rock climbing, sea swimming, trips to the wider Devon and Cornwall area, sporting events, and more!
All events are hosted by our friendly Halls Team and led by our Hall Ambassadors. Check out our

Halls Handbook
Your Halls Handbook contains all the information you need while living in halls. It contains useful information about how to access support, emergency contact numbers, where to report maintenance issues and how to pay your accommodation fees.
