Remembering 2020 at BGU - June: Committing to Student Support

While 2020 has been a far from normal year at BGU, we’ve still been able to celebrate a wide range of successes and achievements from across our learning community.

To mark the end of the year we’re picking out our favourite stories from each month to share with you.

June

The health and wellbeing of our students of immense importance to us. Lincoln Bishop is often described as a community with a family feel and we want to make our students know that while they’re with us they’re never alone.

As part of this commitment we partnered with Health Assured to provide all students, both current and new, with access to 24/7, confidential Mental Health and Wellbeing support through the Lincoln Bishop Student Support Package.

Advisors will be available 365 days a year offering students over the phone support or structured counselling for a range of issues including:

Stress and anxiety
Family issues
Financial wellbeing
Relationship advice
Medical information
Consumer advice

Health Assured’s qualified counsellors use a practical approach in supporting students. They offer space and time to talk about concerns and provide guidance and mindfulness techniques that will help in the present.

All support is within students’ control and available when it suits them best, meaning whatever they need and whenever they need it, help will be on hand.
