Introduction To Help And Advice Services

Often life is far from plain sailing, so in this section we have tried to provide some basic information and contact details to deal with the most common issues that healthcare students report to us. If you cannot find what you are looking for here, you may wish to visit the Students' Union's main web site at www.su.nottingham.ac.uk.

The Student Advice Team

Our service is available to all University of Nottingham students. The team has been awarded the Community Legal Service Quality Mark in the 'General Help with Student Casework' category. This means that students can expect to receive a free, quality service from us.

The team can help you with bursary and money problems as well as a variety of other problems such as housing issues, consumer issues and basic legal issues etc.

Our pages here give basic information on the most common issues that we deal with from healthcare students. Please feel free to call or email the Centre (or you can call in if you are based in Nottingham) to talk through your options or to find out more information.
