26 January - 22 March 2026

This winter brings a brand new campaign focused on helping commuters travel safely to and from university, no matter what their journey is. This campaign will be led by the Commuting Students Community Officer, Delilah Ferry-Swainson, with support from various Community Officers and societies including Neurodivergent Soc, Fashion Society, and Rhul Dance. “Safe Travels” is running from the 26th January until Spring begins on the 22nd March. 

The main objectives of this campaign are: 

  • Awareness – Highlighting the issues faced by commuters of all different identities, and where they can get support. 

  • Information – Sharing advice and tips related to various aspects of commuting, and feeding back students’ needs to the University. 

  • Community – Building a stronger sense of belonging for commuting students. 

Over the course of the campaign there will be a wide array of events to get your voice heard, meet your community, and push for change. These include crafts, mixers, listening circles, and even a runway. 

So grab your car keys or train ticket, come down to campus to get involved, and most importantly: have a safe journey!
