Freshers' Week

With so much available in Freshers’ Week, you’ll enjoy a varied number of activities. Each college has a different timetable of events plus the Freshers’ Fair. The college residences have their own rep to help you settle in and for anything else ask at the LUSU information desk.

Lancaster University hosts their Give It A Go Week giving you the opportunity to try something new from learning a new language such as Bulgarian, Chinese or Norwegian, to ballroom and belly dancing, and discovering what’s on offer at 200+ clubs and societies.

Get physical with archery, living history or Taekwondo. If you want to keep active during Freshers’ Week, there are lots of sports and activities to try.

Why not join one of the LUSU’s organised trips and shop at Trafford Centre or IKEA, or why not discover what the Lake District has on offer.
