Depression has been in the news headlines recently. If you (or friend or colleague) ever experience any difficulties due to work or personal life, the University’s Counselling Service offers confidential individual and group sessions to support you with stress, anxiety or depression, plus an innovative online self-help programme called Beingwell. This programme helps you to develop skills and strategies to enhance your sense of well-being. It’s easy to use and totally confidential.
On campus massage
To help you relax at work, Stephanie Marsh provides wonderful on-campus massages with 15% off her regular prices for staff. Why not try her 20 minute neck, back and shoulder massage.
