Student support and wellbeing

​​We're proud to be known as the university where you're a name, not a number, and understand that no two students' needs are the same.

The Student Support team is available seven days a week until 5.00am each night. They can support you with a wide range of issues such as academic, personal, wellbeing, relationships, housing issues or any other concerns. If you feel overwhelmed or if you're not sure what to do next, we are here to listen and help you.

Student Support can be reached by email, text, or phone or via popping to our Student Support & Engagement office on campus.

Our friendly team can meet you on campus for appointments or speak by phone or video call and can ensure you are supported by the right people at the right time.

Settling in to student life

Peer Support Champions are here to support you with both academic skills development and settling in to student life. They can help you develop skills including structuring academic writing, putting together a strong argument, finding the best resources both online and in the library and understanding and using sources.  

Each Peer Support Champion has their own area of expertise that they are particularly well-versed in. Examples include: living in accommodation; LGBTQ+ chat; clubs, societies and the social aspects of university; BAME chat; moving from undergraduate to postgraduate studies and disability chat.

We also have ‘return to learn’ and international Peer Support Champions who can offer invaluable insight in these areas. The Peer Support Champions are recruited from across the university cohort including from post-graduate courses and apprenticeships. 

There is a drop-in service with someone available between 12:00pm and 2:00pm every weekday. There are also a number of online options for students who are not on campus.

You can also get support via email. For more information contact learninghub@leedstrinity.ac.uk .
