Give it a Go


Try something new with one-off, low-commitment activities open to all UEA students.

Give it a Go is an awesome events program created just for students like YOU starting your journey at the University of East Anglia. It’s packed with one-off activities that you can dive into at any point during your time here. 


Our goal? To help you try new things, meet new people and make the most out of your student experience! All activities are beginner-friendly, with zero pressure to commit long-term—just jump in whenever you like. Check the event listings to see if you need to book ahead or if you can simply drop by on the day.
