Healthy college

A Healthy College is one that promotes a healthy lifestyle for all its students and staff. Working with our community partners, we aim to create a learning environment where positive wellbeing is the expectation for all.

We currently offer a range of initiatives including:

For students

  • Access to a Student Health Advisor
  • Access to a Student Mentor
  • Access to a Student Counsellor
  • Access to a Personal Tutor
  • Tutorial provision which covers a PSE programme
  • Reduced membership fees for the Sports Centre
  • A smoking cessation programme
  • An enrichment programme

For staff

  • Flexible working
  • Access to the Employee Advisory Resource
  • Meditation as part of Staff Development
  • Free treatments at the Broadway Centre
  • Free physio sessions
  • Reduced membership fees for the Sports Centre
  • A Cycle to Work Scheme

Moving forward we want to drive the Healthy College initiative by raising awareness of healthy eating, nutrition and the benefits of a healthy diet and exercise, emotional well being and alcohol, drugs, and tobacco.

If you have any ideas for future Healthy College initiatives please let us know
