Your happiness, personal safety and mental and physical health are so important to us. We provide a first class student support service, with dedicated staff, to help you with any problems you may face.
The Vice Principal (VP)- Dr. Ruth Wilson, Assistant Principal (AP)- Gini Bedford and our Assistant Student Support Officers are responsible for overseeing all pastoral and welfare matters within College.
If you need to discuss any matters which are affecting your academic studies such as personal, financial and/or medical issues, then you can make an appointment or take advantage of our drop-in service during normal working hours. We also have 24/7 welfare cover and security. In the event of a welfare emergency, Security will contact the College Officer (Principal, VP or AP) on the emergency rota.

Welfare Wednesdays
Throughout each term we hold a number of Welfare Wednesday sessions where students can gather today and complete fun activities such as arts & crafts, food tasting, board games and a variety of global-themed entertainment.
University is often an exciting chapter of our lives and at Durham, we want every student to reach their full potential.
Whether you want to develop your academic skills or need help because you’re feeling overwhelmed, there is support available for you.
You can find all the information on the support available, and how to access it, on the Student Support Hub: durham.ac.uk/student-support-hub
