About Us

There is widespread interest in student mental health and in the support provision offered by Universities. We have collated a set of the most frequently-requested data on the services offered by the Counselling & Mental Health Service at Â鶹´«Ã½. This is summarised for academic years 2017/18 – 2023/24 in the following tables:

• Summary Counselling & Mental Health Service Data
• Data by Year Group
• Data by Demographic Group
• Staffing Levels in the Counselling & Mental Health Service

The Counselling & Mental Health Service offers a range of services to students and staff. For the academic years 2019-24 we have produced an additional table of data to reflect the activities of:

• The Counselling and Psychological Wellbeing teams
• The Mental Health Advice Team
• Training

Counselling & Mental Health Service Activity by Function

This data is limited to the Counselling & Mental Health Service. Â鶹´«Ã½ has a wide range of support services, including Student Support staff in our residential colleges, Academic Advisors, mentors, chaplains, and our students who work as peer-support through their roles on college or Society committees. It is not possible for us to collate data on the support offered by this broad network. Students are signposted towards the Counselling and Mental Health Service for support when they are experiencing mental health difficulties or are facing distress that is best-served by our specialist team.

We analyse data by academic year, from 1 September to 31 August. Support for our students frequently extends beyond a single term, so we do not collate data on a termly basis. Â鶹´«Ã½ does not operate a semester programme. We do not collect data on waiting times for services.
