Support for students affected by war, conflict and disaster

Some students may be impacted by events in their home countries, such as war, conflict and disaster. These events can be highly distressing for students.

UCL has a dedicated service, a collaboration between Student Support and Wellbeing (SSW), the Department of Psychology and Language Sciences (PALS), and the University Clinic aimed at supporting affected students emotionally and practically by offering sessions of Psychological First Aid (PFA).

You can access the team's support by arranging to speak to a SSW Student Adviser. Please visit the PFA web page for more information.
