INTRODUCTION WELLBEING
Wellbeing
We want you to get the most out of your time at university, and aim to provide a safe, supportive environment in which you can reach your potential.
Our comprehensive network of support services is available across the University: in our residences, our academic schools and through central services such as student counselling and student health. Together, they ensure you have access to academic, personal and practical support throughout your studies.
Support for your wellbeing We can support you in managing your own wellbeing as well as putting you in touch with support services when you need them.
• In your school – student wellbeing advisers work with academic personal tutors, supervisors and other staff to address any personal and emotional difficulties you might experience, helping you to make the most of your academic studies.
• In your residence – Each of our Residential Villages is supported by a team of full-time support staff, who are trained to provide a visible and approachable source of expert help 24/7, 365 days a year. The team also includes 120 Chief and Senior Residents who live in our residences and provide a familiar face and peer support for their fellow students.
• With your health – the Students’ Health Service offers the full range of NHS GP services. It is run by a team of doctors, nurses and administrative staff with specific expertise in student issues.
• With a disability – students who come to Bristol with ongoing health conditions, mental health or specific learning difficulties, autism spectrum conditions, sensory impairments or mobility difficulties can access additional advice and support from Disability Services. It is best to make contact early to find out what support is available and how to access it.
• With your faith and spirituality – the Multifaith Chaplaincy offers confidential pastoral and spiritual support, religious information and advice, regular events, and a welcoming space for people of all faiths and none.
Health and wellbeing
Making the transition to a new university can be challenging. We offer a range of services to support you in managing your health and wellbeing. As well as helping you to access local NHS services, our Student Counselling Service provides group and individual counselling. We encourage students with enduring mental health and ongoing health conditions to notify us early on in the application process so we can help with setting up the appropriate support networks in advance.
As a University of Bristol student, you will also have access to Big White Wall, a free, online service, available all day, every day, allowing you to chat to others, access tools, set goals and track progress.
