What is Be Active?
Be Active is a complimentary active programme brought to you by the Sport & Wellbeing Team. The focus of this weekly scheme is to give all students the opportunity to be active through organised sporting activities, the scheme is free of charge. You do not need a membership with the Sport & Wellbeing facilities, it is currently a case of rock-up and get involved. At some points we will ask you to reserve your spot, but this will be clearly explained to you when and if this is required.
No previous experience is ever required to attend our activities, if anything we actively encourage students to try something brand new. All attendees must sign a disclaimer and abide by the health and safety regulations of each session, scroll down to take a look at our timetable!
