Room filling up for our pre conference workshop on the university mental health charter #efye2025

Recently I was a guest of Trinity Hall Cambridge to help launch their fabulous project “Improve Wellbeing to Enhance Learning and Academic Performance.”

Fascinating new research from @tamsinford.bsky.social & colleagues which shows that CYP with psychiatric disorders now face more severe difficulties & functional impacts than in past surveys, "challenging the idea that ^ prevalence stems from over-medicalising mild symptoms" doi.org/10.1111/jcpp...

And the book exists online! Available in July this year manchesteruniversitypress.co.uk/9781526140128/

Our new paper drawing on evidence from university student services staff to better understand the demands on services for mental health support and the ways in which student mental health presents and is supported www.mdpi.com/3106724

So this is rather fabulous and important from @sarahcrook.bsky.social www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....

Evaluating the impact of an intervention like #UniMentalHealthCharter is clearly important. So today we're publishing and independent evaluation led by a team at UCLAN ow.ly/IfFs50UeT1j

Its 5 years since we launched the #UniMentalHealthCharter Framework. So today we're publishing an updated version to reflect the huge amount of research and guidance that's been published since 2019. ow.ly/IfFs50UeT1j

Today we have released Learning from the University
Mental Health Charter: An Analysis of Outcomes Reports. With the fab Amy Zile and Michael Priestley we analysed Outcome Reports provided to universities who had completed the UMHC Award Process. Findings here - t.co/CmXvqIYRNV

Very proud that it is almost 5 years since we launched the #UniMentalHealthCharter. To mark the occasion we've been working hard to update the framework, learn from what we've done so far and make plans for the future. shorturl.at/Z04uD
