University Mental Health Day is celebrated across the UK bringing the university community together to make mental health a university-wide priority and create ongoing change for the future of student and staff mental health.
Our own programme of events will reflect that whole community, whole university approach. As the sector develops its focus on staff and student wellbeing, we aim to be at the forefront of innovation, contributing to UK-wide discussions, ideas and policies and working with colleagues across the sector.
“Every year we celebrate University Mental Health Day to spread the message that it is okay not to be okay, that a lot of people can get better, and that our university community cares.”
What's on
We have collaborated to present many activities, encompassing online and in-person events throughout the university. This includes a keynote session featuring senior leadership team members, students, and distinguished guests. These are a respected member of the Student Union, the Executive Director of Student and Academic Services, the Executive Director of People, the Pro Vice-Chancellor Education, and the Pro-Vice-Chancellor Education, Health, and Human Sciences.
University Mental Health Day 2024 will include sessions from the Institute for Lifecourse Development, STAART and the Staff Wellbeing Network, Disabled Staff Community, and the Student Wellbeing team as well as Nature and Mindfulness, Yoga and Colouring sessions and hearing from the Greenwich Students' Union about student mental health.
