Wellbeing support is available to any student in the department who feels it may help to talk to someone. Many students find that sharing worries or concerns – big or small – can make a real difference to how they feel and engage with their studies. Seeking support early can help prevent difficulties from becoming overwhelming, and you do not need to wait until things reach a crisis point to ask for help.
To book an appointment with our Student Wellbeing Advisor, please visit our page. You can also email bgstudentwellbeing@imperial.ac.uk.
