The Student Wellbeing and Inclusivity Service recognises that students coming from the GTRSB communities may need additional support during their time at the university. As a commitment to equality, diversity and inclusion, GTRSB students can request a named adviser within the Student Wellbeing and Inclusivity Service who can assist throughout the entirety of their degree. You can email wellbeing@essex.ac.uk and expect support on:
Our Essex Law Clinic provides legal advice and support to residents facing eviction. The clinic operates by appointment only and they undertake an initial assessment to prepare the best advice for your case.
As an institution, we are committed to supporting and protecting our diverse communities, and this includes our Gypsy, Traveller, Roma, Showmen and Boater students. You can contact the university through the Report and Support platform if you would like to report any incidents or get support related to one.
