Location: Edinburgh
Campaign: To support university students struggling with mental health issues

Student life can be stressful at times.

 

We are a group from The University of Edinburgh who think that more needs to be done to support young people who are struggling with their mental health.

 

It’s important that those who are finding things difficult, know that someone will be there for them.

 

We’ve teamed up with Fixers to encourage other students to be aware of the signs of mental ill health so they’re able to help others.

 

We hope our campaign will allow more individuals to open up about their feelings and reach out.

 

Here is a list of Fixers helping me with this Fix:

 

Katharine Stephenson

Kate Repnik

Fiona Perriss

Jennifer Pewsey

Hannah Bottle

Ewu Alem

Kerri Sutherland

Kirsty Watters

Sarah Patrick

Jenny X Wilson

Jennifer Willbond

Hannah Riley

Ewan MacKintosh

Chak Lam Lp

Vivek Majumder

Melina Maiworm

Calum Perera

Sophie O’Connor

Sophie Burns

Maddie Payne
