Student Welfare and Community Life
The Student Welfare and Community Life team is a first point of contact for students in need of support.
No matter how big or how small the issue, contact us to talk about what may be bothering you, especially when you are not sure of the options, or when things feel too difficult to manage on your own.
We are here to help with a range of circumstances and situations, and if needed we can also direct you to appropriate specialist services for additional support.
We are available to meet in person or on Teams, and via email or phone call.
