The Student Wellbeing Service is experienced in providing confidential support to students around issues of sex, gender, sexuality and sexual orientation.
It is always advisable to let your personal tutor or course leader know if you are having difficulties affecting your studies – they are there to help, and can offer useful advice and support. Consult your GP if you are feeling persistently low, or if your difficulties are significantly affecting your daily functioning.

Billed as the 'UK's largest independent therapy organisation working with gender and sexual diversity clients', the website offers self-help resources and hosts the Directory of Pink Therapists – qualified therapists who adopt a sexuality-affirmative stance and do not see sexual or gender variation as a sickness.
