Mental Health and Wellbeing Support and Resources for Postgraduate Researchers (PGRs): Introduction to this guide

Introduction to this PGR Mental Health and Wellbeing Guide

The purpose of this guide is to bring together in one place a set of Mental Health and Wellbeing resources for PGRs at the University of Hull. 

It signposts you to the excellent services and support already provided by the University. 

It also signposts and shares resources that have been developed by the HE-sector and partners to specifically to support the mental health and wellbeing issues that postgraduate researchers experience, to enable you to positively manage your health and wellbeing. These resources are evidence based and were gathered as part of a thorough review of current guidance, emerging sector best practice, and published literature from within the HE-sector. 

We hope that you find them useful.

This guide was developed by Lauren Powell as part of her Graduate Internship Project in the Doctoral College from September 2021 to April 2022 under the guidance of Jackie McAndrew.
