Heads of Wellbeing
Our Heads of Wellbeing, Dr Nicole Jones (left) and Lizzie Shine (right), coordinate the student wellbeing and welfare provision. They provide support to all undergraduate and graduate students dealing with a range of issues related to welfare and wellbeing.
Nicole and Lizzie can be contacted for one-off chats and check-ins, advice, and signposting to guided self-help and relevant services within College, the University and the NHS. They are available Monday – Friday and you can book a meeting on their booking page Head of Wellbeing (office365.com) or by emailing wellbeing@lmh.ox.ac.uk.
They are also responsible for supporting our estranged and care experienced students and work closely with the Dean, Nurse and Junior Welfare Deans.

College Nurse
Anne Harpin is available Mondays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays (8.30am-3pm) and Tuesdays (1pm-7pm). You can get in touch via Email: pml.ladymargarethallnurse@nhs.net or Tel: 07595003239.
She can help you manage health problems and illnesses and arrange for referrals when necessary. She can treat minor illnesses and injuries and advise on sexual health (please check the leaflet below). Contraception is available to all men and women, including emergency contraception. Anne is a go-to contact for emotional and psychological issues.

Doctors' Practice
LMH requires all students to register under the NHS (or make a private arrangement) with the College Doctors who are part of the Banbury Road Medical Centre, 172 Banbury Road - tel: 01865 515731. To ensure you receive continuity of care, it is advisable that you remain registered for the duration of your course. You will still be able to receive treatment elsewhere on the NHS, for example during vacations, by registering as a ‘temporary resident’.
Student Support Co-ordinator
Clare Atkin is part of the Academic Office team and it is her role to facilitate the academic support of both undergraduate and postgraduate students with registered disabilities throughout the student’s academic life cycle – starting when they come to interview, through to when they sit their final examinations, in liaison with the Disability Advisory Service. Clare is Secretary to Grants Committee, and also facilitates the Financial Support Review Panel meetings.
You can email Clare at student.support@lmh.ox.ac.uk.

The Dean
Dr David Campbell is a stipendiary lecturer in law here at LMH and working with the Junior Deans manages College discipline, always seeking to ensure that LMH is a safe, inclusive and supportive community.

Junior Welfare Deans
The Junior Welfare Deans, Vania Pinto, Chishimba Kasanga, Graham Reid and Kyla Smith are also an invaluable support for welfare issues. They are graduate students at LMH who are trained to provide welfare support and they also assist the Dean in maintaining a safe and secure environment within the community.
