Even though we're not on campus, every student still deserves a free period. ❤️

Thanks to @scotgov funding, we've teamed up with @HeyGirlsUK to send our students free period products. Please note that we can only deliver to students within the UK.

The factors that determine our health are complex. Socio-economic, environmental, technological, medical and behavioural factors all influence our ability to live healthy lives.

How can we create a healthy future for the UK?

We are living in the middle of the biggest #publichealthcrisis for a century. This is having a devastating effect and will impact our country for years to come. But the future of health will be defined by more than #coronavirus.

How can we #design #ourhealthyfutures?

[Our Healthy Futures @healthfutureuk]

We can’t predict the future, but the decisions we make today will determine what sort of future we will live in. How do we make sure we make the “right” decisions?

How does housing affect our health and wellbeing?

Houses are more than just roofs over our head. They provide spaces to live, grow and socialise. Badly designed, maintained and unaffordable housing can cause stress and anxiety that can have a lasting impact on our health.

"In Scotland deliberative democracy methods have had a few outings in the health and social care sector. Crucially each have sought to include the experts by experience". Read @SophieLock17 's blog on our @FireStarterFest event with @scotgovopen https://t.co/ZpC2lJvPhY
