Student-Led Improvement tool

We know how vital students are in leading change. Since launching the University Mental Health Charter in 2019, we have been promoting the importance of a whole university approach to mental health and wellbeing. 

However, it can sometimes be difficult for students to know where to begin and you might not have the tools and resources to work with your university to create positive change. 

Working with a group of students, we have created the Student-Led Improvement Tool. Working alongside the Charter’s principles of good practice, this guide will help you to create positive change at your university ; starting with identifying what your university already does and what they need to work on more, and ending with the ability to monitor and measure ongoing progress towards an excellent whole university approach to mental health.
