STUDENT SUPPORT AND WELLNESS
FASS Student Support Team
FASS has a dedicated team of Student Support Managers (SSMs), whose role is to offer support to students who may be experiencing mental wellbeing-related difficulties or who may require special needs support. Our SSMs can discuss problems and potential solutions with students, and, where possible, facilitate access to the various university resources that may be helpful.
