I'm worried about a student who needs to speak to a mental health professional UOP staff member

1. Complete the University’s Raise a Concern Form and a member of the Student Life Team or Student Wellbeing Service will be contact the student.

And then

2. Complete the University’s Sport and Recreation’s Team UOP Working Together Form so our staff in Sport and Recreation can get in touch with you and offer support and guidance from a sports club perspective.

Staff from Sport and Recreation work closely with staff from the Student Life Team and the Student Wellbeing Service. There are a few things you’ll need to complete both forms:

• Your name and contact details

• The name (and ideally the student number) of the person you’re worried about

• Details on the concerns you have and when these concerns started (maybe create a timeline, to give as much detail as possible)

The Sport and Recreation staff team has staff dedicated to welfare and safeguarding for Team UOP student sports clubs. We work closely with committee members to offer advice, help to create positive club cultures, and offer guidance for the next steps to seeking professional help. 

Please contact our staff via the Team UOP Working Together Form or teamuop@port.ac.uk
