The role of the JCR Wellbeing Team within college is to provide a listening service whether for information, to talk about a certain issue, or just for a chat.

Coming to university is a very exciting time, but it can also be really daunting and unnerving. Though most people are very happy most of the time, there are those who are not whether you are missing home, having trouble settling in or have something else on your mind. That’s where the college Wellbeing Team comes in. We provide a listening service to allow you to come and talk to another student about anything whether you are simply bored and fancy a chat or there is something else is bothering you.

So, how do you find us?

The team is always around college, in the bar, at bops, in the JCR or at meals, and you should be able to recognise us from the photos up on the boards around college, and on this website. We are also central to activities during Induction Week. Our numbers and email addresses are up on welfare notice boards around college. Follow us on Instagram to stay up to date with useful information, events and campaigns!

What if I want to speak to a member of staff?

The College also has a dedicated staff-led Student Support Team which is led by the Vice Principal. Students can book appointments to meet with one of the two Assistant Principals throughout the academic year. They work closely with the JCR Wellbeing team to oversee support matters within the College. More information about the Student Support team can be found HERE.
