Student Wellbeing

Our Residential and Facilities Management office is onsite so there’s always support and advice available – if you need it. We know you want to achieve your independence and we are committed to helping and supporting you to do just that.

In Errigal & Knocklayde we promote the mental, physical health and emotional wellbeing of all staff and residents. Health and Wellbeing is at the forefront of the ResLife programme and promoting good mental health is a priority. We actively encourage students and staff to look after their mental health and encourage residents to discuss any issues relating to emotional wellbeing without fear of stigma.

We support your wellbeing through organised social activities, events and the enthusiasm of the ResLife team.

ResLife Night Assistants and security staff are available throughout the night to address any issues which may arise and our Resident Assistants are available outside of office hours to provide additional advice and assistance to residents as required.
