Description

This is a space for students who regularly experience pain or fatigue as a result of a disability, and must be booked in advance of being used. It can only be used by one person at a time, and it provides comfortable furniture and flexible lighting to allow students to rest and recuperate. If you’ve had a busy day of lectures, or just need a break from an overwhelming sensory environment, this can be a good place to relax for an hour. The respite room in the Sports Centre is available for booking Mondays to Fridays from 9am to 6pm. The respite room in the Sports Centre is a shared space and may be pre-booked for other uses. To enquire about booking outside of these hours please contact the Sports Centre via email on [email protected].

This room is located adjacent to a sports hall, however, most noise tends to be blocked by the door. The train also goes by regularly which can be lightly heard and felt from the room. There are many variable lighting options available, the room also might have a more clinical-sterile smell to it because of the regular cleaning.

The keys for the room can be picked up from the Sports Hall reception. You can ask someone there to escort you to the room.

The room is located on the 2nd floor, you can either use the stairs of the lift, walk into a hall containing lots of posters of past students, turn left and enter a large room with an open sports hall on the story below, the room is on the right about halfway down the length of the hall. You will see the signage on the door, use the key to unlock the door.
