Welfare and Wellbeing

There are a number of services available to provide support to you during your studies at the University and you will find useful information about them on these pages.

In addition to the central Student Welfare and Support Services, advice is also available from your college, department, fellow students and the Student Union, and there are contacts for emergency (including out of hours) and non-emergency services for health, welfare and academic support.

All student welfare services remain open throughout the vacations (except Bank Holiday Mondays and the Christmas closure period which runs from 23 December to 1 January inclusive), with some adjusted opening hours (listed on each service's page) and vacation welfare support page.
