Being a student, whoever you are, can be very challenging at times, whether you are finding it hard keeping to deadlines, missing home, or struggling with budgeting. Alongside these worries, we understand that LGBTQ+ students can potentially face additional challenges. If you're a student who wishes to seek support and/or advice surrounding gender, sexuality, and beyond, our Wellbeing Team has a range of support services available to all students.
