Student Mental Health

Our mental health matters.

Isolation and anxiety are on the rise as we are cut off from community and faced with lots of uncertainty. We may find ourselves asking, what does it mean to be a Christian student, but live in a broken world? How can we support our struggling friends, and point them to Jesus?

We want to encourage you to get the conversation going, share openly with one another and remind each other of the amazing truths of the gospel.

As well as the range of blogs and resources below, we've created two short videos to help grow our understanding of mental health.
