MindGuard Student Mental Wellbeing Training
Have you ever felt overwhelmed by your studies, unsure where to turn for support, or wanted to help a friend who was struggling but didn't know how? Many university students experience stress, pressure, and wellbeing challenges during their university journey, yet it is not always easy to know what support is available or how to access it.
As part of the Erasmus+ MindGuard mental wellbeing project at the Centre for Teaching and Learning at the Faculty of Science and Engineering, we are offering a one-day free training programme (6 hours) on mental wellbeing prevention designed specifically for university students (between 1 August 2026 and 31 January 2027).
Through interactive and practical sessions, you will learn how to recognise signs of stress and emotional difficulties, build resilience, develop healthy coping strategies, support your peers, and better understand the mental wellbeing resources and support services available within the university. The training also aims to strengthen peer support networks and help create a more supportive and connected student community.
The training will be delivered in small groups of 6-8 participants, providing plenty of opportunity for discussion and the exchange of experiences. Places are limited and will be allocated on a first-come, first-served basis. If you are interested in participating, we encourage you to register your interest using this link (https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScRZq15X_85o6H_ED6eratFVeJAimeciOORZna2B2_IIaTmmA/viewform) Training dates will be confirmed and shared with registered participants at a later stage.
We look forward to welcoming you!
