During the holidays, Radboud University's student counsellors will not be available for some time. Nevertheless, you are not alone. Are you looking for some company or advice, or are you worried about someone else? Read more about where to go for (self-)help.
Social activities in the Student Chaplaincy
Are you not going home for Christmas? Or do you just want to spend some time getting to know other students during the holidays? You are welcome to join the activities in the Student Chaplaincy on 24 or 25 December. Check out the full programme here.
Self-help with Gezondeboel
For the holidays, the platform Gezondeboel offers the free self-help programme 'Winter Welzijn: Actief en Gelukkig' ("Winter Wellbeing: Active and Happy").
Unfortunately, this programme is in Dutch. Gezondeboel however offers more self-help programmes about (mental) health. Through this platform, you can learn more about topics such as loneliness, performance pressure, or finding a good balance between studying and social activities. Create a free account with your Radboud e-mail address. Sign up for Gezondeboel here.
Christmas activities op campus
From 14 to 25 December, a number of Christmas activities will be organised on (and off) campus. Check out the full list.
