Connaught Hall: Your Voice, Our Action

Updates from your Hall Feedback

Residents at Connaught Hall told us there was a focus on alcohol in our events, that you they were unaware of the support available to them and that they wanted more consistent portion sizes, greater breakfast variety and better dietary choices. Your feedback gave us a clearer picture of what would improve everyday life in halls and help residents feel more informed and included.

Here are some of the actions we’ve taken in response to what you told us.

You said: Events were not always accessible with the focus being on alcoholic events

Our action: 

We have made sure every event that we currently facilitate is accessible to as many students as possible. All events will always have a non-alcoholic option, and alcohol will never be the primary focus of the event.​

You said: You were unaware of what support is available to you

Our action: 

In your welcome book, we have made it clear who each of the teams are, what support is available, and what the teams are trained in. We also have Resident Advisors located in the lobby daily every evening for 1 hour to support you. ​

You said: You wanted more consistent portion sizes, greater breakfast variety and better dietary choices

Our action: 

We use regular catering reviews to monitor menus, portion sizes and service standards, guided by student feedback.​
