Support and wellbeing
Our Support and Wellbeing Team is the first point of contact for students seeking wellbeing support. Our friendly and approachable team is here to listen and offer practical advice and guidance to help you find the right wellbeing support service.
We also offer free, confidential counselling services for all our students. Talking to a counsellor in a safe, non-judgmental, and confidential setting, can enable you to work through your problems with the aim of reaching a solution.
Mental health and wellbeingDisability and dyslexia support
Our friendly and dedicated disability support and advice team is here to help and support you throughout your time at university, including help with applications for disability funding support through the Disabled Students’ Allowance (DSA).
We will work with you to make the University aware of any disabilities and health conditions, such as any long-term physical or mental health conditions, as well as discuss potential additional support needs, and how that support can be put in place and accessed.

Financial supportMedical and health services
The National Health Service (NHS) provides health services in the UK, and all students are entitled to treatment from the NHS, including Tier 4 visa holders who will have paid IHS fees as part of the immigration process.
We strongly encourage you to register with a local doctor as soon as you start your studies with us. This helps to make sure that you can see a doctor quickly if you fall ill or need routine medical care during your course.
