The student health and wellbeing service at Newcastle University provides information, advice and guidance on a wide range of student support issues to enable all students to maximise their potential whilst at University. The service also provides some specialist in-house support to students with specific learning difficulties, autism spectrum disorder and mental health issues. In the academic year 2018-19 over 45 students accessed non-medical helper support funded by the University. Of the students who were provided with non-medical help support, over 4 800 hours of support was delivered to enable access to learning. This was split between 1 300 hours (Study Assistants) and 3 500 (Support Assistants).
