Mental health support is integrated into all of our services. In addition to the counsellors, we have mental health advisors and mentors who support students with mental health difficulties who are also struggling academically. These services include:

support in managing specific mental health conditions
co-ordinating crisis situations if and when they occur
general advice on issues related to mental health and wellbeing
help to meet the needs of studying with a mental health difficulty
identifying reasonable adjustments
sessions to help you develop skills to manage mental health conditions while being a student
assistance referring to, liaising and coordinating with NHS and other external services
support in accessing other University departments such as academic schools, occupational health and housing services.

I have a mental health mentor, who encourages and supports me with my mental health. This has been a tremendous support especially in the beginning when I questioned whether I had the ability and the confidence to do a Masters degree.
