Following the devastating earthquake that struck Turkey and Syria on Monday morning, the university has extended support to students who are likely to have been affected.
The university has reached out with an offer of support to all students who have registered their nationality, home country, or address as Turkey or Syria.
If you have been directly impacted by these events and are struggling with any issues – including academic matters or wellbeing problems – then we encourage you to reach out to us. You can book either a virtual or an in-person appointment through MyWellbeing by logging into the Student Life portal.
You may also wish to reach out to your tutor or supervisor for further support and guidance. Chaplaincy and Faith Support also offer pastoral support and guidance for those with or without a faith.
If you would like to donate to the relief effort, below are some organisations:
Disasters Emergency Committee
UNICEF
Turkish Disaster and Emergency Management aid campaign
Turkish Red Crescent
