¹û¶³Ó°Ôº

I hope that you all have had a great summer. I want to extend a very warm welcome to ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº, whetherÌýyou are new or returning to ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº! I am looking forward to meeting many of you throughout the year, and I wish you every success on your courses of study. My office is on floor B2 of the Student Centre. Please stopÌýby to say hello, or stop me when I am walking around campus.

I am part of Student Support and Wellbeing Services and am responsible for supporting your spiritual wellbeing while you are at ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº. I am committed to supporting students of all faith and belief backgrounds, as well as those of no faith. You can find more information on the Chaplaincy's Faith and Belief webpage, including information about other chaplains, local places of worship, SU Faith and Spirituality Societies, and Quiet Contemplation Rooms (QCR's) on campus.

Please find details of various events and activities that I am hosting throughout this term below, alongside information about support I can offer along the way.

One-to-One Support

You can speak to me in confidence about anything that is impacting your time at ¹û¶³Ó°Ôº. It may relate to your faith or belief background, or a non-religious world view. It may also be completely unrelated, and that is okay too. These sessions are your time to discuss and reflect on whatever is on your mind at the time. You can email me (reid.humble@ucl.ac.uk)Ìý´Ç°ù .
