University Mental Health Day

12 March 2026 was University Mental Health Day, with this year’s theme focusing on the power of human connection.

To celebrate this awareness day, the Student Wellbeing Service along with a fantastic group of support services came together to host a pop-up event to help students and staff learn more about the resources and activities available across the university to strengthen connection and a sense of belonging.

The event took place in the Nucleus Building and included the Student Wellbeing Service, EUSA, Sports Union Clubs, Active Lives, Penumbra and Health in Mind. It was a joy to see strong engagement, with over 300 students and staff dropping by to connect (and have some fun) throughout the day.
