I don't drink alcohol and club nights aren't my thing - what are my options?

Don't worry - Hallam Welcome is about so much more than partying! In fact, we have a whole programme of events and activities that don't involve alcohol or clubbing, so there’s plenty for you to get involved in.

During Welcome you can try things like:

  • Welcome fairs – explore stalls, freebies, societies and services in a relaxed, daytime setting.
  • Daytime and chilled events – campus tours, film screenings, games or craft sessions, quizzes, coffee meet‑ups and study socials, all advertised on the Events listings.
  • Society events – many societies run intro sessions and socials that are completely alcohol‑free and more low‑key. You can browse groups on our Societies directory.
  • Volunteering tasters – get involved in one‑off activities and community projects, which you’ll also see on the Volunteering page

If you’re not sure what to go to or want some personalised suggestions, you can contact the SU team via our Contact Us page and let us know what you’re comfortable with.
