Life
Getting a headstart in life can be more challenging for students with additional support needs and mental health conditions. Life helps students who will benefit from an extra helping hand to understand about balanced dietary behaviours, find their passion for fitness, pursue positive habits for health and enjoy their
social life.
​
Data shows that the proportion of people with disabilities who report feeling lonely ‘often’ or ‘always’ is almost four-times that of people without disabilities, so here at Studdie we created our Life hub to help students with additional support needs reduce their anxiety around new situations so they feel good, confident, active and importantly, social!

Well
On average, poor mental health ratings are much higher
for people with additional support needs, with around 40%
struggling with anxiety (compared with 20% for the general
population). In addition, over a quarter of UK students (37%)
are currently experiencing their state of mental wellbeing
changing for the worse since starting higher education.
Studdie’s mental health and wellbeing content has been
developed by qualified and accredited therapists who follow
a research-led approach, grounded in cognitive behavioural
change methods.

Data from the Office for National Statistics and Labour Force
Survey (LFS) revealed that people with a disability were over a
third-less likely to be employed than people without a disability.
What’s more, graduates with disabilities are more likely to work
part-time or pursue further study, and are less likely to be in
full-time employment or in a permanent contract six months
after graduating.
Our Future section is everything students need to build
confidence and to prepare them for what lies after education.
From CV writing and finding your first job, to excelling and
progressing through your career, students with disabilities will
get the help they need to give them the same options and
access to future career choices as everyone else.
