Student Wellbeing & Support
Our College Counsellors and Mental Health and Wellbeing Officer are available during term-time and regular weekly confidential appointments are made to suit the student, lasting approximately 6 weeks. Students can self-refer or be referred by any member of staff. Drop-in appointments are available everyday and do not need an appointment.
Counselling
We have a confidential counselling service which is available for students Monday to Friday. To make an appointment please visit Student Services or speak with your tutor.
