Covid -19 HE Student Support Fund
Applications to hardship funds administered by Money@CampusLife will be closing on 12/05/21 for students who are completing their course in June and graduating this summer. If you’re in your final year and completing your course in June 2021, and experiencing financial difficulties – you must submit an application to the hardship funds by Wednesday 12/05/21.
For more information and to make an application please take a look at the following web page; https://www.swansea.ac.uk/money-campuslife/hardship-funds/
There is no guarantee that an award payment will be made from your application as each assessment is based on evidence of financial hardship, however we do consider all applications. If your application is successful you will receive an award payment in the form of a non-repayable grant. Applications can take up to 15 working days to make an assessment, possibly even more if further information is required.
Please feel free to get in touch if via email if you have any queries; hardshipfunds@swansea.ac.uk.

Mental Health Awareness Week
Mental Health Awareness Week is a national annual event which provides the opportunity to focus on achieving good mental health. It has grown to become one of the largest awareness weeks that is marked across the UK and globally and in 2021 will be hosted between May 10th – 16th.
The main aim of the cause is to provide a platform to share conversations around mental health, recognise the things in our daily lives that can affect it and to offer practical advice and support on how to improve mental health.

Student Safety Survey
Your welfare is our priority, and we want all our students to feel safe studying at Swansea University and living in the community.
To help us prioritise issues that matter to you and understand your concerns, we have developed a Student Safety Survey to gather your feedback on this topic.
The survey is anonymous and will help us work with local authorities in Swansea to ensure the correct support is in place for our students.
