MU Wellbeing Services
There are a number of great support services available on campus to help you get the most out of your University experience. While these services are always available when you encounter a problem or an issue, they can be most effective when you engage with them early; whether you have a question, are unsure of something or foresee a problem coming up. If you are in any doubt about what services you should engage with just drop into the SU and have a chat with our Welfare Officer. They can advise you and refer you to the most appropriate service.
