We’re here to help you

If you need practical advice, a confidential conversation or general information, no matter what the issue is, our Student Services Hub is the place to go. Ask us about health and well-being, accommodation, funding, exam stress and much more. Your questions matter and you'll get answers from our team of experts.

Your health and wellbeing

We have professionals who provide support on issues concerning mental and emotional health, including assessment and referral for counselling or mentoring. Find out more about our health and wellbeing services.
