Get support for a disability
If you have a disability, mental health condition, long term medical condition, autism or a specific learning difference such as dyslexia, dyspraxia or ADHD, there are plenty of services and resources available to support you throughout your time at King’s.
Visit Disability Support & Inclusion to find out about the support you may be eligible for during your studies, such as how to receive a support plan and adjustments for exams and assessments, and how to apply for disability-related funding. We encourage you to register with the Disability Support & Inclusion service as soon as possible if you haven’t done so already.
Your Student Support Advisor
We know it’s good to talk, and your Student Support Advisor is here to support you through any concerns or worries you have throughout your studies. Your Advisor will help you navigate King’s specialist support services as well as signpost you to external organisations for support.
Contact the team at supportadvisors@kcl.ac.uk.
Take care of your wellbeing
It's important to look after ourselves. From Counselling & Mental Health Support to Faculty Wellbeing & Welfare Advisors, Les Mills+ virtual fitness workouts to mindfulness sessions, there are a variety of resources to help you take care of your health and wellbeing throughout your student journey. Find out more about services and how they can support you on Student Services Online.
We also have a collective responsibility to look after others in the community, so take some time to familiarise yourself with the King’s Community Charter, which explains how you can help us ensure that everyone feels a sense of belonging and safety at King's.
King’s students can access free and confidential online mental health support from Togetherall. The service is available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week from any device with an internet connection.
Mandarin-speaking students can also register to talk to a Mandarian-speaking Health Advisor about navigating our mental and physical health services.
King's College London Students' Union (KCLSU) are also here to ensure that your wellbeing is positively supported. Check out their wellbeing pages and connect with their Advice team who can answer your questions and help you look after your wellbeing.
