It’s important to take care of yourself. There are a range of different support services that you may wish to contact.
Report + Support
If you make a named report here, our Intercultural & Anti-Discrimination Adviser can meet with you online or in person to discuss your support needs and provide signposting to other services, including the Student Conduct team, Security and the Police.
If you choose to report anonymously, that's ok too. We want to know what is happening to students on campus and in the city. Your report will inform us of this.
