Occupational Health and Wellbeing services are accessible to all employees. Students are asked to use their university’s occupational health services but are free to benefit from and interact with our health and wellbeing offer. Management referrals are not required to access support from an Occupational Health and Wellbeing serivce – in fact, we encourage you to contact us for help and advice whenever it’s needed and ideally as early as you reasonably can. 

For further information on referrals, the different types of referral and how to use these to access our support and services, please scroll down or visit the referrals area on the Occupational Health & Wellbeing StaffZone page.

Those with any further queries about Occupational Health and Wellbeing services should contact the team. We can be reached via email on [email protected] or via phone on 0191 445 5494 between the hours of 8:30am – 4:30pm, Monday to Friday.
