Oxford University's student union has said it will place "trigger warnings" on freshers’ fair stalls which students could find distressing.

The union said it will also install a wellbeing zone for anyone who feels “uncomfortable” at the event this week.

More than 400 clubs and societies related to areas including music, sports, literature, politics, faith and cultural groups, at the university are eligible to have a stall at the freshers’ fair on Thursday and Friday.

In a message posted on social media, the student union said it was not able to ban any society from having a stall at the fair because of UK freedom of speech legislation.
