Candidate for the position of Mental Health Awareness Officer
Hannah Bourne
I would like to be the next part time officer for mental health awareness as i am passionate about mental health and due to this pandemic looking after our mental health is more vital now than ever!
When questioning students what they would like to see in the wellbeing service at Derby university i had a wide range of answers:
- Some believed that the wellbeing service at Derby University is brilliant and we should work had to keep it that way.
- Whilst others believed that they dont really get supported in the way that they would like and they use the service of more of a safety blanket.
So what will i do?
- I would like to provide training around mental health to make people more aware.
- Ensure that enough support is being given to students across the university.
- To be available to students if and when they need guidance regarding there or another person's mental health and well-being.
