Aled Osbourne an adult nursing student talks about the support you receive when you are a student

At UWE there is so much support on offer for you. There's your lecturers, there's your module leaders, your personal tutors they're if anything course related, about your lecturers if you've got a complaint to make or generally anything about your course or an essay mark.

If you are a disabled student you've got disabled student support up at Frenchay and here and they're really good. You also have advisors that are employed by the university as well if there are any welfare issues, any finance issues, academic issues, accommodation issues there's advisors that are connected with the university that you can go to.

You've also got your student's union so that's for independent advice. If you've got something to complain about regarding the university there could be a conflict of interest if you go to a university advisor so your student union is there to give you independent free advice and they are really really good.
