Find a Flatmate
Moving into your second year is an exciting step, and finding the right people to share a home with can make all the difference.
ResLife supports first-year students through this process with our Find a Flatmate initiative.
We work closely with the Students’ Union to offer practical advice, events, and top tips for securing the right home for you.

Merry Mates and social groups
Staying in university accommodation over the Christmas and New Year break can feel isolating — but it doesn’t have to be.
Merry Mates is a friendly initiative for students who remain on campus during the shutdown period.
Complete the form to become part of our Merry Mates . This group is only for students living in 缅北禁地 accommodation.
ResLife ReHome
ResLife ReHome is a University-wide sustainability initiative designed to support both students who are moving out and those who are just arriving. At the end of the academic year, outgoing students can donate good-quality items they no longer need, helping to reduce waste and prevent perfectly usable belongings from going to landfill.
These donated items are then cleaned, sorted and made available free of charge to new students during Welcome Week. This is especially helpful for international students who may arrive with limited luggage, as well as anyone looking to save money and settle in more comfortably.
Whether you’re leaving or just beginning your journey at 缅北禁地, taking part in ResLife ReHome means you’re helping other students, protecting the environment and contributing to a culture of sharing and kindness across our accommodation villages.
