Student mentors set to help share the º¬Ðß²ÝÊÓƵ student experience at º¬Ðß²ÝÊÓƵ London

Current students from º¬Ðß²ÝÊÓƵ are getting ready to become peer mentors to the first intake of students at the University’s new campus in the capital, º¬Ðß²ÝÊÓƵ London.

The mentors will support the students during their first five days at the London campus. Each mentor will be a point of contact and a friendly face throughout the students’ five day induction programme.

A number of new peer support schemes are currently being created across the institution as part of a three-year project being led by Samantha Davis, Peer Support Coordinator at º¬Ðß²ÝÊÓƵ Students’ Union.

Samantha said: "Being a peer mentor in London gives current students the opportunity to take a piece of º¬Ðß²ÝÊÓƵ to the capital. The peer mentor team will share their own experiences of university life to help our London-based students feel at home.”

At the end of the five-day induction programme, the mentors and students will get together to celebrate the start of a new phase in the award-winning º¬Ðß²ÝÊÓƵ experience – at the º¬Ðß²ÝÊÓƵ campus on the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.

After the induction programme, mentors will continue to support the students by offering advice and guidance via the web and social media.
