A Common Approach to Student Mental Health

Following a wide-ranging consultation over the last year by the Joint Student Mental Health Committee, a comprehensive approach to support student mental health has been set out for colleges and departments from the 2023-24 academic year.

The approach outlines common expectations to ensure students have access to a standard provision of mental health support, whether presenting to their college or department, and could include signposting to central University or external services. Part of the approach involves introducing a network of welfare leads in every college and department. Colleagues in these areas have been asked to complete the College or Department form to identify a suitable contact for this role. Please contact Katherine Allen to register for training or to discuss any queries.
