We know that settling into university life may not always be straight forward, so the Union offers wellbeing support, a safe space where you can always find someone to talk to, offload your worries, and be signposted to additional support if needed.
The Advice Hub
The Advice Hub is a service available to all Strathclyde students offering free and confidential information and advice. They're independent from the university and can work with you on academic, housing and/or finance related issues, just to name a few. It's easy to book an appointment, explore services online or contact them.
Hear to Listen
Hear to Listen is a service that offers informal, friendly, confidential, wellbeing support, in person, and a safe space where students can find someone to talk to, to offload their worries, or be signposted to additional support if needed. They don't provide counselling, nor intervention, but simply pastoral support, offering a listening ear to anyone who wants it - even if it's just to chat because someone is new to Strathclyde and still getting to know people and the campus.
Glasgow Students' Nightline
Nightline is a non-judgemental and confidential listening and information service run by students for students with volunteers from all 3 universities in Glasgow. Open through the night, Nightline can be contacted by phone, text or online chat for free and in complete confidence.
Christian Union
The Christian Union isn't just for those that follow the Christian faith at Strathclyde. It welcomes everyone under its banner and presents new students a fantastic way of networking and expanding within the student community. They also organises events and workshops on a regular basis to encourage maximum engagement.
Strathclyde University Muslim Association (SUMSA)
SUMSA is the place for all of our Muslim students to meet and find new friends. There is a dedicated space in the St. Paul's Building on Martha Street. There are prayer rooms, social events and gatherings to discuss faith.
Language Cafe
This society is a wonderful place to meet other students while learning a new language. They regularly host language exchange events with a cup of tea. Who knows, you may have the chance to share your own language too.
