Introduction

Staff in Scotland's Colleges and Universities asked for a central resource that gives information and guidance on mental health issues relating to the support of student mental health and well-being. Our aims are: To provide an on-line resource that can be updated for staff supporting student mental health and well-being To encourage an overall Institutional approach to student mental health and well-being To highlight good practice in mental health improvement initiatives through case studies To advise staff in Institutions of their responsibilities in relation to relevant legislation and policy To be a central point where links to national initiatives and other resources can be found
