Tomorrow (4 March), marks University Mental Health Day. It is more important than ever to focus on our mental health and wellbeing, and support each other. In support of this year’s University Mental Health Day, a number of virtual events are taking place. Your VP Societies and Sport, Lucy Brown and VP Welfare and Diversity, Henn Warwick, are leading a Mental Health Awareness course on Friday (5 March), encouraging open discussions about mental health. Alongside the Students’ Union, as a College we are taking part in The British Inspiration Trust (BRIT) 2021 Challenge, to raise vital funds to support young people’s mental health.
You can find some ways to practice self-care and look after your wellbeing in the poster below, which was provided to us by The Cameron Grant memorial trust.
If you are experiencing personal or academic challenges that are affecting your health and wellbeing, please use our wide range of services that are here to help you. If you would like to talk to someone or are concerned about anyone within our community, please contact our Student Advisory and Wellbeing team. There are also a number of events that take place on a weekly basis to support your wellbeing, which you can find on the student intranet.
