Updated Information\/ 15 Jan 2021<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Wellbeing<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

If you require wellbeing support, you can find further information about the university wellbeing services here: https:\/\/www.ncl.ac.uk\/wellbeing\/<\/a>. In addition, you may make an appointment with our School Student Wellbeing Adviser, Katie Corps, who is offering drop-in surgeries. She can be contacted at: sacswellbeing@ncl.ac.uk<\/a>. Please remember that there is also pastoral support available through the Senior Tutor (Giles Bailey), your personal tutor and your DPD.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Accessing work in progress, materials and equipment left in studios:<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

a.     Only if you live VERY locally<\/strong> \u2013 within two miles of the department you can email<\/strong> stephen.rowarth@newcastle.ac.uk<\/strong><\/a>  <\/strong>to arrange one brief <\/strong>access to the studio to pick up some of your materials, equipment and work in progress.  Access will be on Mondays and Wednesdays 10-11am<\/strong> for the next couple of weeks.  If you have a legitimate reason for not being able to come in during these times then you can let Steve know and it may be possible to arrange another time but please be aware that there is no out of hours access<\/strong> (evenings after 5pm or weekends).  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

b.    <\/strong>If you live further afield and need things form your studio \u2013 you can email <\/strong>burnie.burns@newcastle.ac.uk<\/strong><\/a> to arrange for some things to be posted  to you.  When you email him please state your Year, Studio Number and the list of things you need.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Obviously, we cannot send everything so please prioritise what you absolutely have to have to continue to work from home for a while.  There will be a maximum size and weight if things need to be boxed (see below).  Of course, we can look at posting long thin things, or square flat things etc. of different dimension within reason, but please be understanding and sensible about what is practically possible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Also, depending on how many people need this it may take a few weeks to get to everyone.  We are going to prioritise Years 3 & 4 initially but of course we will send as much as we possibly can, as quickly as we can to everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
