At a meeting with you we will discuss the need to share information on a need to know basis with key University Colleagues/Departments.

4) External agencies/Individuals
It may be the case that you are engaged with an external service or agency and that it would be beneficial for liaison to take place between the Welfare team and them. Please indicate below if you are engaged with any of these services and wish for liaison to be permissible. If you are not engaged with a service please select ‘Not applicable’ from the drop down.

5) Exceptional Circumstances clause
Wherever possible staff will seek to obtain your agreement prior to liaison, however it is acknowledged that there may be some circumstances where this is not possible. There may be rare instances when Wellbeing Services are unable to maintain our commitment to confidentiality. In such circumstances we may need to contact relevant others such as your GP or other health professionals. Exceptions to confidentiality occur when Wellbeing Services believe you or others may be at risk of serious harm, when there are safeguarding concerns, and/or when a member of the team would be liable to civil or criminal court procedures if relevant information had not been disclosed. In certain exceptional circumstances (such as where there is an immediate and serious threat to your personal safety or to the safety of others), we may disclose information to your parents/emergency contact or engage with them if we consider this essential for your safety.
