  • Thanks to everyone who dropped by today! Even if you might not have a chance to come or art is not really your thing, we hope you can do a little something for yourself đź’ś

  • While we like to spread kindness to others, it is also incredibly important to show yourself the same kindness đź’•

Making sure that you take time to relax is very important, especially when our lives can be so hectic. Practicing self-care in whatever way resonates most with you can be a great way of doing this. Whether thats spending time with friends, being creative, or just allowing yourself to take a break from your to do list, it’s essential to set aside time to relax! 🌙✨

As a side note, we will be having some relaxing activities this week (an art event and movie night - see our timetable post), so do drop by!

  • Most of us are new to Bath and the University, 
coming from a different country, state or city. 
We came here with some luggage and 
a lot of dreams and ambitions. 
Maybe you have found your people, 
your second home here. 
Maybe you haven’t yet. 
All we really need here? A little kindness. 

P.S. Kindness comes in many forms. 
These are just a few ways to brighten someone’s day, 
but there are countless ways to make a difference. 
We hope these ideas inspire you, and remember, 
you can find your own unique ways to show kindness. 
How do you spread kindness in your own way?

NLA Closure

The Nightline Association (NLA) have announced they will unfortunately be closing at the end of May 2025. The NLA is an umbrella charity that supports each Nightline branch across the UK, and their closure will be affecting all Nightlines to different degrees.

What does this mean for Bath Nightline?

Whilst we are legally owned by the SU, the NLA has been one of our biggest stakeholders and provided a lot of support for us over the years. This includes a lot of the software that we use as well as an "accreditation" process which ensures we are operating at the highest quality standard.

As a result of the closure, we are currently in discussions with the University of Bath and SU to determine the future of Bath Nightline. This means we will continue to run our service till the end of this academic year, but we are unsure if we will continue operating next year. 

To help inform this decision, we're eager to get some feedback about if and how Nightline has supported you during your time as a student. If you'd like to share your thoughts then please fill out a quick form here.

Changes to our service

As we adapt to the NLA's closure, you might see some changes to the way we operate in the next few months:

  • New website

Officially, the NLA stopped hosting the domain for our old website  on 09/03/2025. You might still be able to access our old website at the time of reading this, however this website will soon become unavailable.

As a result, we've temporarily moved our website to our SU Groups page. On this page, you will find all our information as usual. If you'd like to use our Instant Messaging service, please check out our "Want to Talk?" to find the link. This will link you to an external website, so if you are currently logged into your SU account we will not be able to see who is messaging us. Our IM service is anonymous as always! 

Our new website: https://www.thesubath.com/nightline/

  • Closure of email service

As of 28/02/2025, we officially no longer offer an email service for students. Unfortunately, there are no alternative programmes available to us that can adequately anonymise users emails. Rather than compromise the values of our service, we in agreement with the SU decided to cease the use of our email service. However, we still offer our phone call service (the number is on the back of your library card) and our Instant Messaging service as mentioned before. 

 

We appreciate this may seem quite sudden, but we aim to be as transparent as possible during this process. We will update this page as and when new information becomes available. If you have any questions or concerns, please get in contact with either our coordinators (coordinators@bath.nightline.ac.uk) or SU Advice (suadvice@bath.ac.uk).

About us

We are a student-run, confidential, and non-judgmental peer-to-peer support listening service for students here at the University of Bath. We are open from 8pm to 8am every night of term and our trained volunteers are happy to listen to anything you may wish to discuss. Nothing is too difficult or too trivial to be worth mentioning. We won’t judge you or tell you what to do. We will simply listen to whatever is on your mind.

What can I contact Nightline about?

We receive all sorts of calls, from students who have nothing on their mind and just want to chat, to students who are highly distressed and need urgent support. Below are some examples of calls we receive.
