| [Content Warning: Suicide] |
| Hi everyone, |
| I hope you are all staying well. |
| This week sees the launch of the Students’ Union’s immensely important #StopSuicide campaign. Please take a moment to visit the campaign web page for information on how to identify signs that someone might be thinking about suicide, how to start conversations about the subject and to provide support. In these times of isolation, it is more important than ever that we help one another to spot the signs and break the silence. |
| We know that many students are facing significant challenges brought about by the impact of Coronavirus; that’s why Warwick SU is supporting the NUS Student Safety Net campaign. Amongst other things, this campaign is pushing for all students to have access to a national hardship fund, and for those leaving education to be supported by a grant. Keep an eye on the SU social channels for further info, and download the campaign assets if you’d like to get involved. |
| For those who still have exams and assessments, don’t forget to visit the Pressure Drop section of the SU website for hints, tips and resources to help you through the season. If you need a break from study, you could do worse than check out the SU’s ‘Staying In In’ checklist on the SU Facebook page for ideas on things to do. |
| Try to stay in touch with the Warwick Community on our Corona Community Facebook group, but above all – stay in and stay safe. |
| Best wishes, |
Ben Newsham
Warwick SU President |
