Welfare support

Welfare

 

There are a number of people in Christ Church to whom you can talk if you are having personal or work-related problems. Your College Adviser should provide pastoral support and academic advice as a complement to your supervisor. The Junior Censor (Professor Jennifer Yee) the Tutor for Graduates (Professor Mishtooni Bose), and the Academic Office can also be contacted about any problems you are having.

Revd. Clare Hayns is the College Chaplain and Welfare Co-Ordinator. She will offer counsel and pastoral support to all members of Christ Church, whatever their religious beliefs. She will also oversee the welfare resources available in college and will work with the GCR and JCR Welfare Officers to do this.

You can book an appointment on Tuesdays with the College Counsellor, Wanderley Santos, via counsellor@chch.ox.ac.uk. You may also receive support via the University Counselling Service.

The College nurse is also available to all members of the College each day in Killcanon 2. Telephone (2)76176. Office hours will be circulated at the start of term and made available on the College website.

The wardens, who are graduate students living on-site, can be contacted for out-of-hours support at wardens@chch.ox.ac.uk or via the Lodge (01865 276150).

In addition, the GCR has its own Welfare Officers. They can be consulted at any time and are always happy to have a friendly (and confidential) chat about whatever might be on your mind. They will organise welfare events and will provide additional information about the welfare resources available to you.
