Whether you want to know what’s happening at LJMU, find your new favourite food spot or work out what everyone in Liverpool is doing this weekend, these are some of the accounts worth having on your feed. 

 

📍 Build your Liverpool feed 

First things first, get to know your new city.

Now you’ve got Liverpool covered, it’s time to sort your uni feed.

đź‘€ And find the accounts for you 

Once you’ve found a society or sports club you like the look of, give their account a follow too. It’s one of the easiest ways to see what they’re actually like, find out about sessions and socials and keep up with what they’re doing. 

Have a search for your course, school or department too. They might have their own account sharing events, opportunities and useful updates specifically for you. 

 

📲 Your Liverpool feed = sorted 

Now all that’s left to do is start saving approximately 400 places you want to visit and never remember which folder you put them in. 

Welcome to Liverpool. đź’›
