All new care experienced students to Queen's will be invited into a one to one support meeting with Julie-Ann Hamilton or Sinead O'Kane.  During the meeting students can raise and issues or concerns they may have, and also find out about range of supports available. If relevant, students will be encouraged to engage with appropriate support services. Students will also be offered wellbeing support or Mental Health Coaching. 

If you are a returning student and would like a one to one support meeting with Julie-Ann, please email: j.a.hamilton@qub.ac.uk or Sinead: s.okane@qub.ac.uk
