We aim to promote positive wellbeing amongst our students.
There are a variety of ways in which you can access support: from speaking to a member of our Wellbeing Team for 1-2-1 confidential advice and support, to accessing self-help resources through the intranet, and a referral to our specialist wellbeing services like the Mental Health Advisor and counselling service.
