Delivered by Advice & Support, developed by Student Minds
We know that most students talk to their friends when they're having a tough time. We can talk to friends in confidence and they're able to help us keep challenges in perspective. The truth is that although uni can be awesome, life’s curveballs can still get us down and in these situations we really need our mates to be there for us.
Friendship can play a key role in helping someone live with or recover from any difficulties they are facing, but it can be hard to know what to say when a friend is struggling. The Look After Your Mate workshop is designed to help you with the following:
- • Key practical tips for supporting a friend
- • Spotting signs your friend is struggling
- • How to start a conversation
- • How to support a friend by listening and motivating
- • Signposting to further support
- • Looking after your own wellbeing as a supporter
It's completely free for all UH students. Simply join the Microsoft Teams meeting at the session time!
