Have you ever dreamed of studying psychology and counselling?

Would you like to study to degree level, but didn't think you had the time?

The World Health Organisation estimate that 1 in 4 people experience a mental health problem in any year. One in six experience a mental health problem in any given week.  These figures may be less than the true figure as many people are still afraid to come forward and seek help for their difficulties.
