Description

This is a fun and creative session where you’ll have the opportunity to get crafty while you meet and socialise with new friends.

We’re providing the tools, the template, and the stuffing, so all you will need to bring along for this session is an old pair of socks! We’d recommend using a pair that are fun and colourful! We’re bringing some recycled socks too, so you can still take part if you don't have a pair of your own.

You’ll be looked after by staff from the Representation Team and a Student Welcome Rep, so this is also a fantastic opportunity to ask any questions you might have about your Students’ Union.

You don’t need to sign up, just show up on the day! It will take around an hour to create your sock monkey, so it’s not a problem if you can’t stay for the full two hours.

Where to find us

The Upper Engagement Space at Frenchay Campus

The Upper Engagement Space is our large open-plan office and activity area, you can find it by entering the Students’ Union Building and coming upstairs: either by the large staircase in our Reception area, or by walking past the Reception Desk to the left, past the Advice centre, and using the lift. When you exit the lift, turn right and come through the double doors.

The Student’s Union has two buildings on Frenchay Campus, they’re directly next to each other. The taller of the buildings is Union 1, where we will be running the session. There’s a large red triangular logo on the building.
