18.01.2022 Top tip for studying remotely! With so much time being spent at home, it is important that your space is pleasant and comfortable for you to be in.

14.01.2022 Dear residents, If at any point you start to feel unwell, please advise the Village Team via phone and contact a medical professional. Its really important you let our team know so we can help you, and assist with any measures to help keep you safe and protect your fellow residents. No-one will be in trouble if they are unwell, it just lets us know to check in on you more often and help you get essential supplies or relocate you if you need to isolate

13.01.2022 A little sunlight and fresh air in your room or apartment will go a long way to keep you connected with the outside world when you are cooped up inside so crack open that window and get some airflow happening!

08.01.2022 Happy World Environment Day! Many of us in the Village community are already actively taking action to care for nature and live greener lives. However, it's more important than ever to continue inspiring positive change amongst our peers. There are fantastic green initiatives already underway at our Villages, with many residents doing their part in helping us build a sustainable future. But we can always do more! We'd love to hear ideas from you - our residents - for environmentally friendly initiatives (no matter how big or small) that you'd like to see rolled out across our Villages

07.01.2022 Try to stick with a fairly normal routine and maintain your basic self-care even if you dont plan on leaving your room! A normal routine includes waking up at a reasonable hour of the morning and going to bed at a semi-regular time, eating meals at your normal time (not breakfast at 2pm, if you can help it!), taking breaks and stretching your legs like you would normally do on a regular day! Maintaining basic self-care means keeping up good hygiene habits beyond just washing your hands things such as washing your face, brushing your teeth, getting dressed into clean comfortable clothes for the day and also drinking enough water
