“We know how important it is for students to have a welcoming space where they can take a break, interact with friends, and access support when needed,” she said.
“Providing this hub is just one of the ways we continue to prioritise student wellbeing at South West College,” she added.
Niall Marlow, the college’s Student Engagement Officer, said, “To celebrate the launch, students took part in a range of activities, and the college is now actively seeking feedback on how to make the space even better.
“Whether it’s entertainment options, additional facilities, or wellbeing support, we are encouraging students to share their ideas to help shape the future of the hub.
“Students can connect with the Student Support Team to provide suggestions and get involved in upcoming initiatives.”
