Faculty Rainbow contacts

Faculty contacts

Faculty and Large Scale Research Institutes (LSRI) have student advisers who can help answer any questions you might have.

If you prefer, you can contact the University’s Rainbow Support Worker, Michael Heard. The Rainbow Support worker provides a holistic approach to student wellbeing for the student rainbow community, offering 1:1 and group opportunities to discuss issues that might impact success.
