[…]support services is available on PleaseTalk.ie. Many Students’ Unions across the country are running events and campaigns today to mark World Mental Health Day, and Welfare Officers in Students’ Unions are available to listen and offer peer support to any students in need of help. Following the hugely successful Mental Health Reform campaign where 21,000 people signed a petition calling on Minister Kathleen Lynch to ensure the €35m of funding committed for community mental health services is allocated and spent, USI congratulate the work carried out on this campaign and encourage the Minister to act in delivering these crucially important services.

[…]students getting part-time jobs and enough hours to support their studies, many are even struggling to obtain a PPS Number, while 67 per cent of international students say they are concerned they will not be able to pay their rent.

Many international students will have expected to pick up casual work to support their studies, but that is proving challenging in the current crisis. This is especially difficult for students who have arrived more recently […]
