Accessing the service
If you would like to talk to someone about a problem, no matter how big or small you think it may be, you can pop in to see Viv or Faye at anytime in the All Saints' Building room M227 or Student Services. We have an open door policy so that you can drop in for a quick chat or you can make an appointment at a time more appropriate for you. We work closely with the tutors in the college which means you can also ask your tutor to refer you if you wish.
