Peer Support

Welcome to Peer Support

Peer Support gives students the opportunity to gain support in an informal environment from higher year students who have been in the same position – whether in relation to academia (e.g. same module or discipline), or the transition to university life.

How does it work?

Students in higher years are trained to become 'Peer Mentors' and provide support for their 'Mentees' by drawing on their previous experience. There are Peer Support Programmes taking place across all Faculties, and both staff and students can set up a programme.
