What is Nurture-U?

Nurture-U is a national research project  that is finding better ways to support university students with their wellbeing and mental health.

Six Universities are involved: Exeter, Cardiff, King's College London, Oxford, Newcastle, and Southampton.

We are partnered with the U-Flourish project based at Queen's University, Canada. They began their work to improve student wellbeing in September 2018.

This research is for students, with students, and by students.

Our goal is to understand and promote student mental health and wellbeing in universities.

We are funded by the Medical Research Council, the Arts and Humanities Research Council, and the Economic and Social Research Council.

Our project ends March 2026, please explore our outputs page to follow our next steps!
