The start of 2024 is in full swing and as we set the tone for a jam-packed year ahead, we’ve been taking a look back at the impact our coaching programme had at some of our partner universities last term.

The start of a new year is always the perfect time for reflection, and as we look back on a successful 2023 and an exciting 2024 ahead, we wanted to share our learnings on the power of coaching for university students, and why universities should consider the intervention for their students this year.

The first month at university can feel like a whirlwind - so many things to learn, new places to explore and people to meet. As a first-year student - especially those who find themselves as the first in the family to attend university, or without the same support network as their peers - giving yourself the time you need to settle in is really important; it’s a time to try new things, get used to being away from home and even learn more about yourself.
