100 researchers, 100 days, 100 mental health journeys. 100 people showing that mental health is part of us all.

This project is ongoing, looking at the mental health journeys of 100's of amazing researchers, helping to break the stigma that still exists. Thank you so much to all those that have agreed to be involved - this project would not have been possible without you!

Support for you

You may find that life at university challenges you in unexpected ways, especially if you're balancing your studies with work and home commitments. If you feel stressed or anxious, you can find support at the University of Wolverhampton.

Our Mental Health and Wellbeing team can help you access support for various personal difficulties. They provide free and confidential advice covering a range of topics, including anxiety, confidence and depression, homesickness and dealing with suicidal thoughts. They provide support for eating disorders, cultural and identity issues, as well as coping with trauma, loss and grief. Students can also access guidance for developing positive work, life and study balance.

Read the Student Agreement for more information on our service, including how we operate and store your information.
If you need immediate help, please visit our I need help now webpage.
Get in touch with the Mental Health and Wellbeing Team

The Drop-in gives you a chance to have a quick 20 minute chat with a Mental Health and Wellbeing Practitioner. During this time we can help you come up with an ongoing plan.
Our Mental Health Drop-in is now available in person or virtually Monday - Friday, please use the link below to book. MHW Drop In Booking Link
From Monday 23rd October 2023, our in person drop in sessions will be held in ML054, ML building, City campus- Map and directions for City Campus (Wolverhampton) - University of Wolverhampton (wlv.ac.uk)

If there are no available slots, please let us know by contacting us throughMHWenquiries@wlv.ac.ukplease could you include your student number in any correspondence to us.

If you are experiencing distress and feel that you require some additional support, please visit the I need help now webpage for further information. Please do not forget the importance of talking to someone you trust. Let family or friends know what's going on for you. They may be able to offer support and help keep you safe.

If you are a student who is concerned that you might harm yourself, you need to contact an emergency or crisis support service. Please visit the I need help now webpage for further information.

The team has different specialist practitioners.
Meeting with one of our mental health practitioners is about making a positive choice to get help from someone who is not involved in any aspect of your life. It offers you the chance to focus on and understand your difficulties.

We will listen and offer support and understanding while simultaneously accepting your values, attitudes and lifestyle in a non-judgmental way.

Our one-to-one work with you is confidential except in rare circumstances - for example, when someone may be in serious danger. In these rare instances, we will seek to discuss any potential sharing of confidential information with you in advance (see our Student Agreement for more information).

If you are allocated an appointment, our focus will be on developing your strengths, skills and resources to cope. We help you to find the answers.

We offer a wide range of wellbeing events throughout the academic year for students to join, including our regular Wellbeing Day and Let's Talk sessions. Please take a look at the Wellbeing Champions webpages for the latest activity, and keep an eye on the student news and events page for more student news.

We provide a wide range of mental health-related self-help resources for our students, including leaflets, apps and our WLV Student Life Connect online service.

Find out more below.

When supporting a student in distress, we operate a three-level response model:

1. Supported signposting: This is the appropriate course of action in most cases.

2. Seek advice: When a student is unable or unwilling to register with the Mental Health & Wellbeing team, but you still consider they need specialist support.

3. Imminent harm/emergency: When a student is at imminent risk of harming themselves - for example, stating that they have a plan to take their own life - or posing a serious threat to another person.

Read more on our Responding to a student is distress webpage.

It is important to remember that your job, as the staff member who is aware of the student's distress, is to determine which of the three levels is most appropriate and follow the guidelines for that level.

In the vast majority of cases, level 1 is the appropriate response. The other two levels are there to cover more complex, more infrequent situations. Level 2 is for complex issues that may have some urgency but are not emergencies. Level 3 is for emergencies, which many staff may never encounter with a student.

If you are worried about a friend or family member, for example, your son or daughter, who is studying with us at the University, please encourage them to seek help and share with them this friendly link to our website: www.wlv.ac.uk/mhw

Go to our Advice for a concerned parent, carer or friend webpage for further information.

We help people through one of the most painful times in life - with bereavement support, information and campaigning.

To find out more visit the Cruse bereavement webpage.

You can call us for free on 0808 808 1677.

We offer information, advice, guidance and casework in 11 key areas:

Benefits, Employment, Debt and Money, Consumer, Relationships, Housing, Law and Rights, Discrimination, Tax, Healthcare, and Education.

We recognise that one problem can sometimes be the result of another so, rather than addressing a single issue at a time we look at a client's whole situation. This way, other potential problems can be identified early which prevents them getting worse. If the situation has already escalated to crisis, then we are responsive and can utilise our robust network of connections to support or negotiate solutions.

For more information visit their Citizens Advice Dudley and Wolverhampton webpages.

Our national Helpline exists to encourage and empower people to get help quickly, because we know the sooner someone starts treatment, the greater their chance of recovery. People can contact us online or by phone 365 days a year. We listen to them, help them to understand the illness, and support them to take positive steps towards recovery. We also support family and friends, equipping them with essential skills and advice, so they can help their loved ones recover whilst also looking after their own mental health.

Mental Health and Wellbeing Advice - University of Wolverhampton

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
Anyone can experience mental health difficulties and it is recognised that life's transition points can be especially challenging. For example, the unfamiliar environment of higher education, combined with the demands of self-directed study can be very stressful, especially for those who already have underlying mental health problems. Therefore, the University of Wolverhampton takes the mental health of its students and staff very seriously.
