Hello! Welcome to my blog!

I am Patch, the Nottingham Nightline Bear! Hopefully, some of you will recognise me from my many appearances in Ocean, Crisis, Portland and (my proudest moment) the Nottingham Uni Harlem Shake video!

I've recently arrived back in Nottingham for the final term. I think I've gone up a few fur sizes... Too. Many. Easter eggs. I'm excited to be back though. I have decided to start a blog just to give students in Nottingham a better idea on what I'm up to, and what the Nightline volunteers are up to! The idea is that I upload a new post every Sunday with details of what I have been up to during the week, and events/campaigns to look out for.

As we are at the start of this term, there isn't much to tell you at the moment! Other than mingling with students at Ocean, things have been pretty quiet! However, this won't last long and soon I'll be busy promoting Nightline's 24 hour campaign during the exam period. This means that Nightline will be available for you to email, IM, call or Skype at ANY time of day during the exam periods for both Nottingham Universities. 
Look out for Nightline volunteers handing out pens and study packs! 

If you are under and stress, have any worries, or even want to talk about problems not related to the exam period; please contact Nightline! Don't suffer in silence! Nightline are always ready and prepared for your call, it's what we are here for. 

I hope you've enjoyed my first blog post, hopefully next week there will be more events to include!

If you see me around campus and fancy a hug, please do come up to me! (I give THE best hugs!).

Enjoy your week and thanks for reading!

Patch


**Bad Bear Joke of the Week!**

Why shouldn't you take a bear to the zoo?
Because they'd prefer to go to the cinema!
