We provide a Drop-In service, which runs every Wednesday between 10am-12 midday behind the Student Information Desk in the Learning Hub. You do not need to book for this. Please take a ticket from the ticket machine next to the Student Information Desk and you will be called through to talk to a member of the ICS team.
