Aim

To increase the awareness of, and remove the stigma surrounding, mental health and improve the support available to students with mental health difficulties. 

Mental Health comes in all shapes and sizes. It can be something as little as being a bit stressed about an exam to someone who has severe depression. The Students’ Union will sign the Time to Change pledge this year alongside holding a series of Mental Health Awareness events culminating in a Mental Health Awareness Week in May. We also want to work with the University to make sure that the services provided are suitable to those that need it.
