What support is available for students with children?

If you have a caring responsibility for very young children (those who are breastfeeding or who are under six months old), we have a range of support services and appropriate study-related adjustments in place to help you succeed in your studies.

Support information:

• Bright Horizons Nursery and Preschool
• Childcare in the local area
• Schools in the local area
• Childcare grants
• Child tax credits

If you would like to speak to someone about additional support you require, you can contact the MySurrey Hive team via Surrey Support to talk to one of the team.

If you find yourself feeling overwhelmed and unable to cope at any point, you can make an appointment to see a wellbeing adviser or counsellor at the Centre for Wellbeing, located on the east side of the Stag Hill campus.

The Centre is open Monday to Friday, 8am to 5pm, excluding bank holidays and University closure days. Contact the Centre on +44 (0)1483 689498 or drop in during our opening hours.
