What to do when you're concerned about a friend
If you’re concerned about the wellbeing, behaviour, or safety of a friend, a good place to start is to tell them your concerns, if you feel safe to do so.
As their friend, you’re in a great position to share your concerns and observations and to help them get support.
In the 'Responding to safety or behaviour concerns' section of the Health, Safety, and Wellbeing page, there is information about support available at the University and externally for when you're worried about your own or another student's safety, or if you or another student is experiencing concerning or harmful behaviour.
I find helping a friend by simply listening, offering support, and showing them that they are not alone in their struggles can make a huge difference to their wellbeing, and makes me feel good too.
