With formal exams and assessments and graduation now behind us, we want to remind you about what’s still on offer from the University and other services this summer, whether you’re back at home with friends or family or spending the break in Liverpool.
Wellbeing support
Even though the academic year is over, our wellbeing and support offer is still here if you need us. Our central wellbeing team is on hand 9am-5pm throughout the week. You can fill in a quick triage form to book an appointment with them. You can also call them on 0151 795 1000 or drop into the Student Life building on University Square.
24/7 listening service
We also have a 24/7 listening service provided by Health Assured. You can speak to them any time of the day or night. Call their freephone helpline on 0800 028 3766. Health Assured also provide the Wisdom app which includes options to speak to someone via live chat, email or video call. Download the app for Apple or Android, and enter the code MHA187679 to get access to support.
Guild of Students advice service
Your Guild of Students is also available as a touchpoint if you are worried about how your exams are going. They offer free and confidential advice which is independent from the University. You can in touch with them at guildadvice@liverpool.ac.uk.
Staying in Liverpool?
If you’re staying in the city over the summer, lots of our campus services are still available. The Sport and Fitness centre on campus remains open, with slightly reduced opening hours, as do the libraries, whose summer opening hours are detailed on their webpages.
The Guild of Students will also be open, and they’ll be running a range of events over the break – check out their events page where they’ll be posting updates.
New overnight study space opening
A new overnight study space is now open in the 502 Teaching Hub until 14 September 2025, giving you even more flexibility about how and where you study throughout the summer months. Find out more details and how to access the space in this piece.
Don’t forget, the Harold Cohen Library (HCL) is open Monday to Friday 9am-9pm and Saturday to Sunday 9am to 6pm, with the Sydney Jones Library (SJL) open Monday to Sunday 9am-6pm.
Careers and Employability advice and opportunities
Whether you’re planning to use the summer break to consider your future careers plans, scope out graduate job opportunities or just earn some extra cash over the break, our Careers and Employability can help.
If you haven’t already, make sure you’re signed up to our Handshake platform. It’s free for all students to use and covers the whole range of work-based opportunities, from casual, short-term jobs to graduate career paths. Activate your account to get started.
If you have any questions or need any help over the summer you can get in touch with the team by sending an email to careers@liverpool.ac.uk or via Handshake messaging.
