I'm worried about my mental health & wellbeing

Letting us know you need help is perfectly normal and we believe all of our team should be able to talk freely about their mental health and wellbeing. 

If you’re worried about your mental health and wellbeing there are a number of things you can do: 

If there’s a friend, family member or colleague that you can trust, talking things through with them can sometimes help.

You can also reach out to our student advisors in the Student Info & Welfare Centre on each campus. If you are concerned about a colleague, please contact HR.  

If you are in immediate danger or seriously injured, you can call 999 (or 112 from a mobile).  

You can make an anonymous disclosure here which will allow us to investigate mental wellbeing concerns in particular areas of the organisation.

   

1 in 4 people is affected by a mental health problem in any year and it is estimated that around 1 in 5 people has contemplated suicide or self-harm.
