Zorb Football De-stress (with Grizedale and Fylde)

College Feedback
As some of you may remember, last term we ran a feedback campaign which proved incredibly useful in helping us as a JCR ensure that we’re constantly on our toes and doing the best for YOU! Here are five key things we learned and put into practice:
1) You said “I would like more themed socials and bar crawls”
so we have introduced a beach themed, on campus, bar crawl in term 3!
2) You said “We want more chilled events in Trev or during the day”
so we have collaborated with Grizedale and Fylde to bring you a end of term zorb football event along with our very own Euros football event and a games and food night in held the TV room.
3) You said “We want the JCR to represent the college and bring us what we want”
so we are working on introducing a termly feedback report to get your voice heard.
4) You said “We would like more help dealing with exam pressures”
So we hosted 10@10, a weekly de-stress event, and provided exam tips and information in Bev’s Hills.
5) You said “We want more support for sports teams”
so we have used the budget to the max, investing in new Darts board, a pool cue, footballs and bibs along with increased promotion and photos of games.
Please please please help improve the college by giving us your feedback on this term by filling in the form HERE.
Thanks for reading!
