We loved Give It A Go week so much that we didn't want it to end!
There were lots of fun activities for you to get involved in and we thought that it was a shame that a lot of them would be lost in our social media archives, so we decided to collate them and put all of the week's resources in one place!
Smoothie Recipes
Our Executives told us their favourite smoothie recipes and we decided to make them! You can find our how-to videos on TikTok. Visit our TikTok profile here. Alternatively, you can find the recipe cards below:
Sandwich Recipes
Who can resist a sandwich? Leave your boring cheese sandwiches behind and try out our Executive Officer's favourite lunchtime meal!
Why not give them a go and let us know which was your favourite? Snap a photo, rate the sandwich and make sure to tag us on social media (@demontfortsu).
Colouring Sheets
Mindfulness is really important and what better way to take a step back and relax than to do some colouring? We made three colouring sheets from a selection of our favourite photos! You can download them here.
10 Minutes of Mindfulness
Natalie from the Mandala Project recorded a 10 minute mindfulness session for you to sit down to and unwind. Follow her calming instructions and transport to a place of full relaxation:

Although the competition might be over, you can still take part in our Zones crossword! Learn more about our democratic system at De Montfort Students' Union (DSU) and how you can get involved. You can find more information here.
Learn more about Student Voice
Academic Executive, Laura Flowers, went live with previous Chair of Council and now newly appointed Union Development Executive, Joanna Dine-Hart, to tell you more about the opportunities you can acquire by using your voice. Find out more about how you can get involved here.
How to buy a membership
Give It A Go week is most important for our student groups as this is their chance to show you how fun it is to be a part of a society or sports group!
Despite the restrictions, our student groups have been hosting Give It A Go sesisons so you can try them out for size with zero commitment.
If you enjoyed their sessions, why not buy a membership to the student group of your choice? Check out the video below to find out how you can do just that:

Art challenge
Get those creative juices flowing with our Art Challenge! Welfare Executive, Benjamin Smith, has challenged you all to get crafty and make something based off his theme of 'Autumn'. Art is a great way to relax and unwind so if you're feeling a bit stressed and tense, why not give it a go?
