We heard from you at our Town Hall sessions that informal study spaces have been getting busier, and as KCLSU spaces are open for informal studying, we too have seen increased traffic in certain spaces. As a result of this, we have opened our activity rooms and some of our venues for additional study space to ensure students can self-distance.

Opening times for our informal study spaces until June 2021 are:

Bush House:

Monday – Friday 9am-8pm, Saturday - Sunday 9am-6pm

  • The Vault Bar on the Lower Ground floor (will close on the 30th May to reopen live-screen selected Varsity fixtures from 1-4th June, open 17:00 – 23:00. To book a table, email [email protected])
  • The Studio on the Ground floor (open until the 20th May, reverted back to activity spaces from the 24th May)
  • Lower Loft on the 7th floor
  • The Media Suite on the 7th floor is currently bookable for lone working and risk-approved media groups
  • The Meadow on the 8th floor
