Belong at Sussex run a range of activities, co-created with Student Connectors, that complement the other events that take place on campus and support all students to find their community and sense of belonging at Sussex. 
 
Our upcoming activities include:

Valentine's Day at Sussex 

This Valentine’s Day, the Student Centre will be hosting activities to celebrate how we can care for ourselves and each other. There will be a wide range of free activities taking place throughout the day. See the full programme for the day.

Activities for mature students 

This term Belong at Sussex will be offering a wide range of activities for mature students, including informal social ‘coffee and chat’ sessions, peer-led ‘Skills Share’ study discussion groups (session 1 is on 8 February), and an afternoon of skills-focussed workshops and activities just for mature students (Tuesday 14 March - booking page coming soon). If you’re a mature student please join our Canvas community page and check our events page.   

Activities for student parents and carers 

Show us who you care for! You and your children are invited to do some colouring for our Valentine's display in the Student Centre. You might win a Sussex cuddly toy!
