Study and Social Areas
Right at the heart of the college campus you will find our light and spacious Atrium which is the central hub of the college, in addition to our two University-style cafes .
When you need to focus and study, you can use our Learning Resource Centre (LRC) which is fully equipped with high spec laptops and computers. We have various other quiet study areas, such as drop-in IT suites and the Study Centre.
If you are specifically wanting a solitary space to study, or focus on your mindfulness, then the Calm Room is available to book via speaking with our Mental Health Lead and Student Support Officer Helen Robinson (hmr@wilberforce.ac.uk).
During the summer, there are plenty of outdoor spaces on campus for you to sit outdoors whilst soaking up the sun, as well as a large undercover area which can be used whatever the weather.
