The TalkCampus app allows you to talk anonymously with other students from around the world, in 26 different languages. 

TalkCampus is anonymous and we won't be able to see if you are using it. You also won't be able to see where other students are from. The app is based around peer support: you can use it if you need some help yourself, or you can go on it to listen to and support others.

The platform is safe and moderated, and is designed as a place where you can be yourself and talk about how you're really feeling. Student life can be tough and we know sometimes you might not want to talk to us about how you're feeling. TalkCampus isn't a replacement for counselling or professional support, however it's a great place to start talking to make sure that however you're feeling right now, you're not alone.

TalkCampus supports over 26 different languages so you can connect with others using whatever language you are most comfortable using. These include: Swedish, Dutch, Arabic, German, Russian, Romanian, Slovak, Czech, Polish, Hindi, Korean, Odia, Bengali, Urdu, Spanish, Tswana, Afrikaans, Cantonese, Mandarin, Japanese, Welsh, French, Greek & Portuguese.

The University pays a fee to TalkLife so you can access the app for free. You will need to use your student email address to create your account, however this is a one-off to allow you to access the service.

No information is disclosed to the University about individual student registrations, however we will receieve statistics relating to the number of students using the service, to allow us to get an idea of its success.

The University does not have access to a list of students who use the app, nor do we access your data or personal information.

On TalkCampus, you can choose whether you want to post using your name, or post anonymously.
