This month's way to wellbeing spotlight is on Be Active.

We'll be producing material to support and promote this way, alongside focusing on a different, salient wellbeing topic each week. Please visit the other items in this menu for more details.

Don't forget, if you want to plan your own activity and need inspiration, examples of previous events can be found here. If you have any ideas for future events, please send these to studentsupport@manchester.ac.uk.

Resources

You can find ready-made resources here or, if you want to create your own, visit the University's brandsite for the assets you'll need (you'll need to scroll down a little to get to them!).

If creating your own, you’ll need to buy InDesign (in Adobe Creative Cloud) from the University's Electronic Software Delivery system.

You should also ask IT to install the University fonts, they can do this simply for you here.

Social media

Don't forget to follow us on instagram: @uomwellbeing.

Every Sunday evening we will be promoting wellbeing events to encourage and remind students of the importance of looking after their wellbeing, and of the many events taking place on campus.

We'll be handpicking different events and activites students can take part in throughout the week from mindfulness sessions to exercise classes.

This will be promoted through our instagram page @uomwellbeing.

If you'd like to run your own activities to promote positive wellbeing and need some inspiration, take a look at this event ideas page. If you have an idea for an event we could run or you would like us to include an event in the weekly event instagram story, please email us: studentsupport@manchester.ac.uk

During the Be Active way to wellbeing we will be running events. These will surround movement and how this can benefit your wellbeing. 

All events can be found on the wellbeing calendar or via the @uomwellbeing Instagram.

Our wellbeing events calendar spotlights the events happening around the university and beyond that can help students take care of their wellbeing. 

All our wellbeing champions have been fully trained and have started to plan and run their events. You can find the social media content our champions have been creating on the wellbeing champions instagram. This is where you will also find updates about the events our champions run.
