The H.M team would firstly like to thank all students who have participated in our survey so far! Your participation and opinions provide us with a greater insight into topics that would be of interest to our audience.

So far, our results have indicated an alarming 83.8% of UNSW’s Hong Kong students are oblivious to the range of mental health services available on campus. The primary cause of this issue is believed to be lack of promotion. This blog post will, therefore, cover the types of services available on and off campus, in hope greater awareness will encourage students to utilise these services more often.
