Incident support

Sometimes things can happen that you may want to report to the University. We are here to support you.

Some of the things you can report include: bullying and harassment, stalking, hate incidents (including racism, homophobia, etc.), safeguarding concerns, sexual violence, concerns about someone’s mental wellbeing (including self-harm and suicide attempts), problematic substance misuse, bike theft, vandalism, room break ins, missing persons, etc.

You can report to the University things that have happened: to yourself, on behalf of another person or things that you have witnessed on campus.

How can the University support you?

The university offers two different reporting services based on what has occurred and picking the correct way to report something can help make sure the issue is resolved if possible.
