Happy International Bat Night! 🦇

Did you know that International Bat Night is celebrated every year at the end of August? Today, we‘re shining a spotlight on some of the smallest residents of our campus.

Have you ever wondered what those ”strange-looking bird boxes“ are on the trees around campus? We have over 60 bat boxes that provide endangered bats with safe places to roost and raise their young. During recent checks by our licensed ecological consultants, we found these adorably grumpy soprano pipistrelles, the smallest bats in the UK (alongside the common pipistrelle), weighing just 3 to 8 grammes!

Our amazing volunteers picked up nearly 10kg of litter around the Sports Hub! 🗑️🌿

Keeping our campus clean helps protect local wildlife and create a healthier environment for everyone. It was fantastic to see so many familiar and new faces joining us!

Want to get involved? Our litter picks take place on the third Wednesday of every month.

📦💚 Donation Drive Update! 💚📦

A huge thank you to everyone who has volunteered so far!

Together, we’ve already:

♻️ Diverted 4.2 tonnes of items from waste
🙋 Had 62 volunteers get involved
🧽 A huge amount of linens and kitchen items being washed and dried
📅 Run 9 volunteer sorting sessions
⏰ Contributed 129 volunteer hours

Every item donated and every hour volunteered helps give unwanted items a second life, reduces waste, and supports students and the local community.

There’s still plenty to do, and we’d love more people to join us! Whether you can spare an hour to help sort donations or simply spread the word, your support makes a real difference!
