     your future. Our friendly, trained and
     experienced staff are here to help and
     can provide free ongoing emotional,

My mental health problems almost
stopped me from going to university.
However, the University has been
so supportive, it’s been one of the
best decisions I’ve ever made. My
lecturers were very kind and always
willing to listen. This encouraged me
to go to Student Wellbeing, where
I saw a counsellor and was given a
Study Needs Agreement - with extra
time on exams and being allowed to
take breaks. There’s also a special
programme with links to the NHS
so I could see an NHS nurse at the
University. Without their support,
I wouldn’t have graduated. I am
incredibly grateful.
