Nightline association honorary mental health professional

"Just as you try to eat your greens and go to the gym taking care of your emotional wellbeing is as vital for overall good health and quality of life. Yet it's something many of us neglect. Everyone goes through tough times - having the opportunity to talk about your problems without judgment or advice can help you make sense of your thoughts, put you back in control of them and allow you to learn from each experience."Mark Goulbourne, Student Mental Health Practitioner and Counsellor.

Samaritans

“University marks an important and unprecedented step in a young person’s journey in the world. It is a time of amazing opportunity and new experiences but it can also be a lonely and isolating time for people. Nightline’s service is a vital support to those who may feel they cannot talk to anyone else. Staffed by volunteers who themselves are students, it is a service which can uniquely understand and support its callers through difficult times.” Pam Blackwood, Operations Manager with Samaritans
