Counselling services
If you are feeling low, confused or stressed, it might help to use the counselling service. You can ask to discuss anything that is troubling you, from stress at College to mental health issues and even personal relationships. This free service is open to all students and delivered in a safe and confidential environment with a qualified and impartial counsellor.
