In partnership with the University of Edinburgh, Charlie Waller have created a series of animations to help academics support students’ mental health.
The four short videos – each under a minute long – offer practical pointers on how personal tutors and other academics can make a positive difference to students’ mental wellbeing. They feature tips on keeping calm when talking to a student who is struggling, being prepared with simple and useful responses, and taking care of your own wellbeing whilst supporting students. They can be used either by individual members of staff, or as part of a training session.
