If you can't visit us, or just have a quick question, come and talk to us at the Quick Queries stand in the Dome, 12 midday - 1pm every Wednesday during term time. 

We are here to ensure you are feeling safe and well throughout your course of study.

If you have something that is affecting you in or out of College or University feel free to contact us. We are open throughout the year, including non term-time periods, and the service we provide is tailored specifically for you.

Our specialist team of support staff offer support, advice and guidance with personal issues you may be experiencing that may be impacting on your studies. These can include concerns around:

  • Housing
  • Finance and funding
  • Welfare
  • Childcare
  • General and sexual health
  • Low mood
  • Anxiety and more...

We can offer wellbeing appointments with an adviser, in order to answer your query at that time, provide access to specialist advice, or give you some information to take away with you.

Self-help information is also available in a variety of formats with a wide range of leaflets and information sheets. If you cannot see what you need, ask or contact our Receptionist who can assist you.

For comprehensive online self-help and guidance on your wellbeing, go to Student Wellbeing Service.
