If you need to speak to someone urgently and it is within the Student Advice & Wellbeing opening hours, our Mental Health Adviser or one of our Student Advisers will be available to talk with you.

It may be necessary to contact one or both emergency services:

  • NHS- Call 111 (option 2 if related to Mental Health) for non-urgent medical concerns, or 999 for a medical emergency.
  • Police- Call 101 for non-urgent matters, or 999 in the case of an emergency.
