What to do if your worried about your friend or flatmate

If you are worried about the wellbeing of a friend or flatmate, you can voice your concerns to a member of staff in SACS or refer to our Student Mental Health policy.

If it's an emergency please refer to the Urgent Help webpage.

The Advisory Service offer drop-in online appointments as well. To book, email: advisory@abertay.ac.uk

If you believe there to be an immediate risk of harm, you can phone Police Scotland on 101 to arrange a welfare check. You can do this anonymously, if preferred, however you will be required to provide an address for the student.

It may seem dishonest to go behind a friend, flatmate, or fellow students back like this. But doing so can create opportunities for them to access the right support. Especially if they are unable or unwilling to do this themselves.
