The postgraduate research mental health and wellbeing group (PGR wellbeing group) is chaired by Dr. Márjory Da Costa Abreu and meets bimonthly with the aims to:
- Review PGR data and feedback on issues around PGR wellbeing, utilising this knowledge to develop and monitor a strategic plan to support PGR mental health and wellbeing.
- Lead on the development of activities specifically focused on improving the mental health and wellbeing culture for the PGR community (students and supervisors)
- Coordinate with cross university departments and units to ensure PGR students are included within wellbeing considerations and activities.
Membership of the group includes PGR students and professional services and academic colleagues who support them. For further information, please contact rida@shu.ac.uk
