At Greenwich Students’ Union we know that it can be hard to meet new people and make friends at university. Thanks to insights from our Check In service we also know that students based on our Avery Hill campus experience loneliness at significantly higher rates compared to the other campuses.

But don’t worry, we’re here for you with Avery Connect!

Avery Connect is our new buddy scheme aimed at Avery Hill students. It gives you the opportunity to meet new people, make friends and explore a variety of GSU activities and events.
