Students can find information about alternative support here.

Staff members can access support through the Employee Assistance Programme.

If you have a safeguarding concern during this time, or need help now, please see the 'I need help now' page.

If you think someone you know is being bullied or harassed there are lots of ways in which you can help them. 

Think 
  • Are they in immediate danger? If they are in immediate danger or seriously injured, you can call 999 (or 112 from a mobile).
  • Find a safe space.  If an incident has just happened try and find somewhere they feel safe.
Talk
  • Listen.  Just taking the time to listen to someone and talk about what has happened can help. 
  • Give options.  When they have finished talking ask them if they are okay to talk through some possible options and next steps.
  • Harassment Contact Scheme. Harassment Contacts are trained staff members who have volunteered to help by listening to you and identifying how you can seek further assistance. The scheme operates within working hours and does not provide an urgent response.
Report
  • Report and Support. Students and staff can report an incident using the University’s Report and Support system on behalf of someone else, they can do this anonymously or leave their contact details. 

There are two ways you can tell us what happened
