A series of health and wellbeing events are taking place across City Campus during April and May - encouraging staff and students to take care of themselves.
Olivia Simpson, Wellbeing Champion Co-ordinator at the University, said: "Everyone is leading busy lives and, at this time of the year, with assessments and exams coming up, it's really vital that students and staff should put some time aside to check on their health and wellbeing.
