We have a Health and Wellbeing Co-ordinator who can provide information about health-related topics such as nutrition and physical activity either to whole groups or on an individual basis. The Health and Well-being Co-ordinator also offers fitness sessions, encourages and supports sporting activity in College and liaises with external agencies to offer subsidised sporting activity at external venues.
In order to provide a holistic approach, the Health and Wellbeing Co-ordinator works closely with the Welfare Officers to support students with issues that may benefit from being addressed via a dual approach.
The Health & Wellbeing Co-ordinator contributes to the development, implementation and delivery of health and wellbeing programmes across UCM; an annual programme of wellbeing activities and campaigns is offered to students across all campuses.
We are committed to creating accessible opportunities for students to participate in sport & physical activity by working in partnership with other departments, such as Public Health, Manx Sport & Recreation, and the voluntary sector, and ensuring that we contribute to improving the health and wellbeing of all our staff & students.
