About the role

Student ambassadors will act as liaisons between staff and the current student body in order to determine which mental health initiatives will best suit their respective campus’ needs. Our ambassadors will have a passion for mental health awareness, equality and inclusion, and breaking down stigmas for all students to access support or additional mental health resources.
