The Wellbeing Lodge welcomes Talking Space!

University can often be a big and overwhelming change. Sometimes, being able to express your thoughts, feelings and concerns freely can make you feel much more at home. TalkingSpace@UoB offers a place where you can do just that. This new partnership with Birmingham Mind provides a safe and confidential environment for you to openly discuss your experiences, both personal and academic. You have the chance to talk with trained intervention workers without the need for a referral. The flexible and accessible drop-in service reduces lengthy waiting times, allowing you to have the opportunity to get support easily.  

The skilled team in the Wellbeing Lodge will also be able to guide you through additional or specialist support if required, providing a space that prioritises safety and wellbeing above all. If a drop-in service isn’t the right fit, a bookable appointment service will soon become available with opening times varying throughout the week.  

TalkingSpace@UoB is a service where you can come to be heard without any pressure and receive immediate, non-judgemental guidance and support. Check out the opening times on the Talking Space webpage.
