Everything you need to know about Halls Life

Your new university chapter is just about to begin so what better time to get to know Halls Life and have a sneak peek into what’s in store this year.

What is Halls Life?

The Halls Life team are here to make sure that you settle into your new home and have the best possible experience while living in Halls. 

From running the Halls Life platform and @livunihalls Instagram to running a year-long events programme, we're here to make your time in Halls a memorable one.

Through our events and activities programme, we offer ways for you to get involved in your community, meet new people or try something new.

How do we do this? 

Your Halls Life journey starts before you even arrive. Expect advice, tips, articles and blogs to help you prepare for the big move and settle those pre-arrival nerves.

You'll also receive an online Welcome Induction from us in early September so you can learn everything you need to know before the move to your new home in Liverpool.

The events start from the minute you arrive right through until you leave.

So, what’s on offer?

Halls Life 💜

The Halls Life team run regular activities such as Activity Packs which we’ll deliver straight to your flat door, as well as mixers, craft nights, wellbeing events. Some of our events will be alcohol free so be sure to look for the alcohol free tag or logo on our events page.

We have amazing teams of Residential Advisers who will also run activities to help you get to know others living in your block or Hall.

Halls Student Committees 💚

It’s not just us who host exciting events but we also work in collaboration with the Guild of Students to run our Halls Student Committees (HSC). Join your HSC to meet new people, gain new skills and enhance that sense of community in your Hall.

Give it a Go & Sustainable Halls 🌍

Along with the Guild, you’ll find Halls exclusive Give it a Go trips and activities to help you get out into the city exploring your new home and local areas. These activities are either free or discounted exclusively for Halls residents.

You can also expect plenty from our Sustainable Halls programme. Along with the Guild, we'll offer opportunities to make a difference in your Hall, learn a new skill and make an impact.

Housing Events 🏠

For us, it's not just about the time you spend in Halls. We know that you'll have to think about where you'll live the following year and this is where we can help. 

To avoid the rush and panic of signing up to a tenancy agreement too early in the year, we’ll run Housing Events and mixers to help you find a trusted, reliable tenancy. You can expect to hear from us and Liverpool Student Homes with Housing advice and reassurance from early November.

Halls Sports 🎾

Along with Sport Liverpool, you can expect Halls exclusive sport sessions, leagues and tournaments e.g. basketball, pickleball, futsal, dodgeball which are open to beginners and welcome all abilities.

What will the year look like?

So now you've got the gist on what kind of activities will be available over the year, here's a taster of what your year might look like.

As well as all of this, we’ll be asking your feedback in first and second semester with the Global Student Living survey – this is your chance to tell us what you think so that we can continue to make improvements!
