Support
Getting support for yourself or a friend
There is support and guidance available for any students affected by drug or alcohol problems - this help comes from the University and also external support services too. If you recognise you have a problem, please be assured that we will help you to access services that will increase your health and wellbeing. If you have concerns for a friend, you can talk to a member of staff confidentially where your concerns and the support options available can be discussed.
We are committed to ensuring our students are supported and have access to appropriate and up-to-date information and guidance regarding drug and alcohol use.
Support is available to you at the Student Services Hub. There is a range of options that would be discussed with you to enable you to access the support that is right for you.
Internal support
Support can also be found at KeeleSU through the ASK service.

- Staffordshire Treatment and Recovery Service (Stars)
- Health Assured
