Additional Support

Student Services Team

Student Services teams offer support to students with a range of disabilities, learning difficulties, and physical or mental health conditions. Support is free and available to all Cardiff Met students.

There is a wide range of support available online and in person, group workshops, access to online tools and resources, and 1:1 appointments. The Wellbeing team can provide specialist advice throughout your studies, including liaising with your academic school to recommend study adjustments (e.g. exam arrangements) and applying for specialist one to one support and equipment. We can also help you to find the right support outside the University.

We encourage students to get in touch with the team prior to starting University as this gives us extra time to work together on getting the appropriate support in place for the start of the academic year.

If you would like to get in touch with a member of the team, please contact wellbeingsupport@cardiffmet.ac.uk or http://www.cardiffmet.ac.uk/student services
