Thrive™: Helping you realise your potential

Two students, sat side by side, smiling at each other.

Thrive™ is an interactive in-person programme, where you will hear from inspirational speakers, and have the option to work with a mentor to support you on your personal development journey.

Open to undergraduates and postgraduates, Thrive™ is free to attend.

Thrive™ can help you:

  • Increase your self-awareness through understanding your own strengths and values
  • Grow your confidence through exploring boundary setting and building assertiveness
  • Feel empowered, overcome self-doubt and increase resilience
  • Push beyond your comfort zone
  • Make connections with like-minded students and start to build a community of support

Thrive™ is delivered by an experienced team working at the university.

Build your support network

We are keen to build a community of support - you will be added to a Teams space where details of further events will be shared, and have the option of joining a closed LinkedIn group to continue the conversations started on Thrive. Following the programme, you will receive a certificate and access to online resources for your own further reading.

As part of the programme, you may have the option to work with a mentor to support you on your personal development journey. Mentors are carefully selected and trained to support you. If assigned a mentor, you will also receive training on how to make the most of the opportunity. This is a fantastic chance to connect with a more experienced woman, established in her career who can share her wisdom and help further your understanding about yourself, relating to what you have learnt on the Thrive™ programme.
