Grab a jumper, light a tealight, and get toasting

Marshmallows, tealights, and Autumn vibes only.

Get ready to get toasty this autumn! Join us for a cosy evening under the stars as we make s’mores the simple way — think tealights, marshmallows, and plenty of chocolatey goodness. Wrap up warm, grab your friends, and head outside for a relaxed night of sweet treats, laughter, and that perfect campfire vibe (without the campfire). It’s the ultimate way to welcome the season — gooey, golden, and oh-so-good.

As the evenings get chillier and the days grow shorter, there’s no better excuse to slow down and enjoy the little things. We’re keeping it low-key and laid-back, with tealights flickering and that unbeatable smell of toasted marshmallows in the air. Whether you’re a first-time s’more-maker or a seasoned pro, everyone is welcome.

So, pull on your comfiest jumper, bring a blanket if you fancy, and join us outside for a night of simple autumn joy. It’s the kind of cosy chaos that makes the best memories — and the best snacks.

Thornbank Outdoor Social space is located towards the back of the back of the building, with bench seating available. The area can be accessed from the main entrance via steps.

ResLife Ambassadors will be there to welcome you - you’ll be able to recognise them in their light blue RLA hoodies and t-shirts with the ResLife logo on.

This is a relaxed event where ResLife Ambassadors will guide you in making s’mores – toasting marshmallows outside to enjoy the Autumn season.

All materials will be provided, so all you need to bring is your appetite! RLAs will show you everything you need and talk you through the process if you need help. You’ll be toasting marshmallows over tealights, so this is a simple and slower way to spend your evening.

The whole event is unstructured and flexible, come and go as needed or stay the whole time.

If you need a quieter spot, just ask the team and they can help you find a nearby calm area to take a breather.

A range of snacks will be available to make your s’mores, and allergens will be clearly labelled.
