@TUS_Athlone_ @EmmaReardon9 A fabulous project! I love having a look at the aeroponic towers regularly. Also bringing the outdoors in, being around growth, is so good for wellbeing. Well done!

Last year in Ireland, Women’s Aid had the highest year on record of disclosures of domestic abuse. Reports of physical violence was up a staggering 74%.

For men who want to be part of the solution to the problem of domestic violence, @Womens_Aid have an Ally Action list which can be found at the link below, thank you.

[Technological University of the Shannon @TUS_ie]

In 2024, sixteen of Ireland's Higher Education Institutions are coming together to say ‘Every 11 Minutes, a woman is killed. #NoExcuse. UNiTE to End Violence against Women’.
For the next 16 days, we will share the same key messages and light our buildings orange in solidarity with all women who have or are experiencing Gender-Based Violence. We will also offer online and in-person training for all staff and students during these 16 days.

#LetsTalkAboutSuicide is an online programme that instils hope – it empowers people to make a difference and reminds us that preventing suicide is possible, even in the small everyday conversations and interactions that we have with others.

Our data indicates that almost a quarter of first year students are feeling lonely often or always.

We've worked with students to develop a new toolkit for students, to crowd source strategies for building belonging. Check it out:

God bless the traffic warden who burst into fits of laughter after ticketing Tommy Robinson's campaign bus outside the Old Bailey 😂

[TUS Athlone Campus @TUS_Athlone_]

Over the next few days, students will learn game design, game testing, and game deployment! By the end, each student will have developed a fully functional 2D shooter game, equipped with the knowledge and skills to continue their journey in game development.

Really sad news about Graham Thorpe.

Suicide can affect anyone.

If you're concerned about yourself or a loved one, having a safety plan has been shown to be effective when people are in crisis - it's an like an emergency response plan.

Helen Lawson @taso_he explains that all students are unique but data tells us some students are more likely to experience worse #StudentMentalHealth and outcomes than others. HEIs should be able to better understand who their students are but issues with data sharing. #MWBHE24
