LifeMatters is a UCC wide project focused on enhancing the students’ experience by promoting mental health, emotional wellbeing and life skills. It is an evidence based biopsycho / social programme developed specifically to aid students in managing the rigours of their academic career and beyond.
TOTEM worked closely with the LifeMatters Team to promote the new LifeMatters concept to students and staff within UCC. Information leaflets and posters were distributed throughout UCC to announce the new course. An internal website also helped to promote the LifeMatters concept. The site allows students to reserve their place on the course as well as giving additional information on LifeMatters topics. Finally, a course brochure was developed and produced to provide the students with a reference tool to help them complete LifeMatters.
