In response to the death of George Floyd and the debate and reflections that have followed regarding diversity within our sector and the wider community, our students and alumni have been recording their powerful messages.
We’ve also added links to useful articles, resources and podcasts.
If the recent events have affected you in any way, our Student Services Team are available to provide support on [email protected] if you would like to speak to one of the team or be put in contact with a Mental Health First-Aider.
Staff in need of support should contact human resources on [email protected] who will be able to direct you towards support.
