Research has shown sport and physical activity can improve our physical and mental wellbeing, and the Active Wellbeing Programme is here to help students with:
The Active Wellbeing Programme is a sport and physical activity programme funded by Student Services. The aim of the programme is to help and empower students health and wellbeing through sport and physical activity and enhance their student experience. The programme is for students at the University of Hull who may feel anxious, stressed, lonely or need more support integrating sport and physical activity in their daily routine to help with their studies. Active Wellbeing programmes are 5 or 10 weeks in length and incorporate sport, fitness or a combination of both. Each programme is completely bespoke to the student.
Students cannot self-refer onto the Active Wellbeing Programme - if you believe the programme would be helpful, please discuss a referral with your supervisor.
Survive and Thrive is an online wellbeing learning programme which has been designed specifically for students at the University of Hull. We know that there is a direct link between mental wellbeing, emotional intelligence, and all aspects of our student lives, including our social connections and our academic achievement.
Survive & Thrive is for all students! It's designed for anyone who wants to learn about and improve their wellbeing, to increase their emotional intelligence and feel more in control of their studies. Whether you’re a foundation or final year student, an undergraduate or post graduate, 18 or 80, there will be something in the programme for you!
There are four modules for you to work through at your own pace and as you work through them you'll be encouraged to practice and reflect on a wide range of skills.
To get the most out of the course, make a commitment to yourself to really engage with and enjoy learning more about yourself and your journey to positive wellbeing!
