@JamesTCobbler my friendly local Eccles Timpsons suggested I get in touch to ask if you’d consider putting a calf boot stretcher in any one of your Manchester shops? 🙏🏻 I’ve got 3 pairs that need doing… I’ll pretty much pay for it for you by the time I’m done!

Anyone working with student mental health will recognise the ‘no entry’ points on this pathway 🙈
The Student Support teams at @LivUni and @LJMU have created a liaison service for bringing NHS services and universities together for student mental health access #smhofe

Today we launched the Education for Mental Health Toolkit- a project I've been involved with for the last 2 yrs.

Pls #retweet & share this great resource for anyone involved in designing the curriculum in #highereducation https://t.co/lRHrNMD4OD

80% students have gambled and 35% have borrowed money in order to gamble (survey of over 2000 students) but most don’t know where to get support at university @YGAMuk #smhofe

[Alix Robertson @AlixHRobertson]

So helpful to hear @SuzieMShapiro @UofGlasgow explaining that therapy isn't always the answer to #mentalhealth challenges, and that support should match the needs and experiences of the student #smhofe

[Allison Booth @allibobs83]

I love the idea of providing support to parents/guardians ahead of students starting uni - managing parental expectations is key when working with adult learners. Something to think about
@UofGlasgow #smhofe

[Allison Booth @allibobs83]

We can often underestimate the impact of transitions on our students’ engagement and wellbeing. Thanks for the reminder @SuzieMShapiro #smhofe

[Allison Booth @allibobs83]

Thanks Alix, great to compare what we offer vs other institutions as well as vs what students say they want/need #smhofe

[Alix Robertson @AlixHRobertson]

Great to be at the Student Mental Health: Identify-Respond-Support conference from @openforumevents in Manchester today! Looking forward to speaking about @TheCfEY and @taso_he's research into 'What works to tackle mental health inequalities in HE' #smhofe

[Alix Robertson @AlixHRobertson]

First year students were asked about engagement with #mentalhealth services, and 70% said they would prefer face-to-face support #smhofe
