Host Darren Ellis is back again with a new panel of experts to discuss student mental health and wellbeing, a topic arguably more relevant than ever before.

In this episode, the panel discusses how wellbeing came to the fore of the higher education sector’s agenda, how that landscape has changed with the advent of Covid-19, and what lasting changes we might see in the aftermath.

Darren is joined by:

• Professor Steve West, OBE, Vice-Chancellor of UWE Bristol, and chair of Universities UK’s Working Group on Mental Health in Higher Education
