Lecturer in Science Communications Andrew Glester reflects on the Dry Conference held at UWE Bristol. http://dryproject.co.uk/

Simon, Miles and Mo talk about how it isn’t just about how individuals support their own wellbeing, but how they support other people’s too. By connecting with other students, staff and with the local communities they’ll feel like an integral part of their new community and be the difference that somebody else might need.

Miles and Mo talk about how they didn't necessarily know what they wanted to do when they graduated, but by taking advantage of the opportunities that university gave them, they were able visualise and move forward towards a destination.

Miles and Mo talk about how university gives students permission to try and fail in a safe space, but then to learn to fail better the next time and get better next time, their university experience will be broader and richer.

Miles and Mo talk about that while the most natural thing to do when you're anxious or worried is to run away, the more we try to avoid difficult things, the bigger those worries or stresses become. If we can be aware of that, then we're in control.

Simon, Miles and Mo talk about how important it is to understand what type of student they want to be and the importance of setting realistic expectations of themselves.
