Student Minds empowers students to build their own mental health toolkit. We also challenge the higher education sector, health sector, and government to make student mental health a priority. Together, we’re improving university communities so that no student is held back by their mental health.

Story

University Mental Health Day takes place every March to get the nation talking about student wellbeing and working together to make mental health a university-wide priority. No matter who you are, you can take part.

This year the theme is human connection. Strong social relationships are integral to us all for enjoying positive mental health.

Get involved on 12 March by organising fundraising events on your campus or in your community, or by taking on a sponsored challenge that celebrates the importance of connection.

Use #UniMentalHealthDay and tag @StudentMindsOrg to let us know what you've been up to.

[Student Minds] helped me better understand how support friends who might be struggling with mental health issues. I now feel more confident approaching difficult conversations and offering help in a compassionate way.
