Mental health campaign to target students
A CAMPAIGN to reduce the stigma of mental health is being aimed at students.
The pressures of study, money management and living away from home are all cited as reasons for students becoming stressed or depressed.
Edinburgh University Students' Association (EUSA) is kicking off its campaign with a "well-being fair" and information and advice on where to get help will be on offer through a website, a booklet and posters distributed on campus.
The students' association hopes the campaign will encourage those students who need help to talk to someone.
Naomi Hunter, vice president of societies and activities, said: "Students face many different challenges and issues and often it is difficult to know where to go for help. We want to make sure that if students are struggling and need help they can find information on what services are available easily."
