Social Networking Group

The Social Networking Group (SNG) is a weekly social group for students who, for whatever reason, are feeling lonely or isolated. It is a supported environment where students can meet each other and form social connections and friendships.

SNG runs every Wednesday afternoon from the Esther Parkin Building on Campus, and is facilitated by Hannah Moore, our Social Interventions Lead and our student ambassador Marta Pajos. You don’t have to attend every week – just when you feel like hanging out. Everything is always free of charge.

We do different things each week, such as arts and crafts, board games, baking and getting out and about to explore Bath. We also organise taster sessions with certain SU societies to make joining them feel a bit easier for students who don’t feel able to join alone for whatever reason.

To join SNG, please complete this short form. You will then receive full details including timings, activities and location, and have the opportunity to ask questions and briefly introduce yourself.

If you are interested in other groups that help with loneliness and improving your wellbeing take a look at our Social prescribing at Bath.

“When I started coming to SNG I had very little friendship with anyone at university. The impact SNG has had on my time at university is enormous.”.

If you want to talk to someone about your wellbeing, please visit the Student Support at the 4 West Roper Centre. Our advisors are available Monday to Friday, 9am-4.30pm.

Alternatively, you can email studentsupport@bath.ac.uk for further support via Teams or call us on 01225 383838.
