Drop-ins with Wellbeing Advisers, Disability Advisers, International Advisers, and Money & Funding Advisers are available each week day during term time. There may be a wait of a day or two for a further 1-2-1 appointment. We can offer in-person or online appointments based on your preference or need.
Please note that our university wellbeing teams are not an emergency service and are also not available 24/7. If you require urgent or crisis support please view details of where and how to access crisis and emergency help. As a student you are also able to access Togetherall - a safe, online community where people support each other anonymously to improve mental health and wellbeing.
Term time drop in sessions (online and in-person)
Our advisers run confidential drop-ins between each weekday during term. These are a mix of online (Zoom) and in-person sessions. For online sessions please click on the link for the team you need during their available hours. You may need to wait for the previous drop in to finish but the adviser will welcome you to the drop in as soon as possible. For the spring term these will re-commence on Monday 9 January 2023. Outside of term time individual appointments can be booked with each team.

The Wellbeing department continue to offer support in the break between terms but there are adaptations to how you can access support and we operate a slightly revised service.
- Initial contact by teams over the break should be by email to team mailboxes - see contact details in the drop down boxes below.
- Emergency support options are detailed here including details of mental health crisis lines and support via online community Togetherall or Student Space run by Student Minds.
- Wellbeing staff remain on campus so in-person meetings can be arranged with all of our teams where requested. Please arrange these directly with the team you need to speak with.
- The online and in-person drop-ins pause and will re-commence on the first day of term.
The Wellbeing department value feedback on your experiences of our services.
