University is an emotional experience, and with deadline season coming up, this experience can turn into a rollercoaster.

Sometimes the best ways to let out these emotions and overwhelming feelings are to have a healthy cry.

Here are 3 spots on your Peel park campus suitable for a good cry!

1) Library Wellness Room

The Wellness Room is located on the first floor of the Clifford Whitworth building and has been converted into a tranquil oasis...

With many comfortable & welcoming sofas and chairs, students can make the most of this space and let out their feelings here.

2) SEE Building Serenity Room

Have you been in the new SEE Building yet? Well if you head up to the third floor, you might find the Serenity Room...

Built especially for students to wind down after a long day at the University, this space has comfy sofas, padded chairs, and even some beanbags!

A good place to let those emotions out, you’ll also be able to see the fab interior design of the new building while you’re on the way to the Serenity room.

3) Gender-neutral toilets

Sometimes, privacy is extremely necessary to let those feelings flow...

Located in the University house and Media City UK campus, gender-neutral toilets are the perfect place to get some privacy.

Whatever your gender identity might be, gender-neutral toilets provide a safe space for you to have a big fat cry. You can find them by the pillars on Southside!

But before you go...
