NESCol launches peer support group for Care Experienced students

May 12, 2021

North East Scotland College has launched a peer support group for Care Experienced students.

The group, Our NESCol SPACE (Student Platform for All Care Experienced), has been formed following feedback provided by Care Experienced students.

Facilitated by the Student Advice and Support Team, the group will allow those who attend to have the opportunity to meet and chat with other Care Experienced people from within the NESCol community, and build a support network for each other.

The first meeting of the group will take place on Tuesday 18 May from 1PM-2PM. Students can access the link to join the session via My NESCol or, if they have declared Care Experienced status, via an email sent to them by the Student Advice and Support team.
