As trained fellow students, Connectors understand what you're going through.
How can a Connector help?
Your Student Social Connector can provide support and guidance to help you:
- Reduce loneliness and isolation
- Build positive relationships
- Feel more connected to your community
- Feel more in control of your life
What's involved?
You'll work with your Connector to:
Find new experiences
Discover new hobbies, societies, or volunteering opportunities that align with your interests.
Try something new
Join a Connector in a new activity to meet people and boost your mood.
Gain confidence
Develop independence skills and meet new people.
Create a plan
Create a plan with your Connector based on your interests and priorities. With regular check-ins with your Connector afterwards, they will ensure you are happy and feel able to engage.
Is this service right for me?

Please note: The connectors are not trained mental health professionals; they are students who want to help others connect to their community and improve their wellbeing. This scheme is not a crisis service either; if you are in crisis, please access urgent support.
