Pulse is proud to have successfully launched Pulse Pantry Pop-Ups across regional and metropolitan campuses, expanding access to one of our most valued student support services.
Pulse Pantry is a free grocery service for UOW students that has become a highly regarded offering at the Wollongong campus. In line with Pulse's recently launched Strategic Plan, the Student Engagement team—supported by funding from the Student Services and Amenities Fee (SSAF)—developed a mobile pop-up model to bring this essential service to students across UOW's onshore campus network. Following a successful pilot, the service will now continue on a monthly basis.
Since launching in May, the initiative has delivered:
🥫20 pop-up activations
🥫7 campus locations
🥫500+ student engagements
Pulse Pantry Pop-Ups have been activated at campuses in Bega, Eurobodalla (Batemans Bay), Liverpool, Shoalhaven, Southern Highlands, Sutherland, and Sydney C*D, ensuring more students can access practical support closer to where they study.
This initiative is a strong example of Pulse's commitment to its vision: to create vibrant, connected and inclusive campuses that enrich student life and strengthen UOW's role as a hub for student and community engagement.
