Our latest research at Student Minds (February 2023) found that:

• 1 in 4 students have a diagnosed mental health issue
• 30% said their mental health has got worse since starting University
• 1 in 4 students would not know where to go to get mental health support at University if they needed it
  
  

On University Mental Health Day we worked with Channel 4 and their Big Boys event and activities, driving conversation about student mental health. The UMHD event involved the cast of the show, press, influencers, MPs, students. CALM and Student Minds ambassadors and families with lived experience. It was a brilliant event and a great opportunity to raise awareness of support services and mental health literacy.
