AdvanceHE: Mental Health and Wellbeing Conference 2022

March 3, 2022

YSJ coffee cups, with labels reading 'I am, I can, I will'.
It is increasingly recognised how important mental health and wellbeing is for staff and student success. Universities and colleges are fast developing ‘whole institution approaches’ to mental health and wellbeing, not only to improve academic outcomes and retention, but to provide a holistic and positive experience, even in the most challenging times.
 
This one-day conference, organised by the Mental Wellbeing in Higher Education Expert Group in collaboration with Advance HE, will discuss new ideas and will aim to provide a boost in motivation and a fresh vision for all delegates. It will explore established and successful examples from the sector, share good practice, discuss the challenges when looking at mental health and wellbeing, and review ways to overcome possible difficulties.
 
This event will benefit anyone who works with or supports students. It will also be of interest to staff with strategic roles, academic staff, staff within counselling services and those who develop policy and practice relating to mental health and wellbeing on campus.
