Forth Valley College is developing a new Mental Health and Wellbeing Plan for 2025-2030 to support student wellbeing.

As the region’s leading provider of further and higher education, the College offers a diverse range of courses and training opportunities to both young people and adults across our local communities.

In line with their ongoing commitment to creating a healthy and supportive environment for their students, Forth Valley College is in the process of developing a new Mental Health and Wellbeing Plan. The current plan, which is set to expire at the end of this academic year, is being reviewed and updated to ensure it continues to meet the evolving needs of students.

Recognising the vital role that third sector and community partners play in supporting the holistic development and wellbeing of students, Forth Valley College is eager to engage these partners in shaping the scope and direction of the new plan, which will cover the period from 2025 to 2030.

CVS Falkirk & District is inviting those interested to join them at the Health and Wellbeing Forum on Wednesday 5 March, 10am – 12pm, via MS Teams. This forum will offer an opportunity for collaboration on this significant issue.

At the Forum, Sarah Tervit, Head of Inclusion & Student Services at Forth Valley College, will share insights into the current mental health and wellbeing experiences of students – both young people and adults – and outline the college’s approach to developing the new Mental Health and Wellbeing Plan. Participants will then have the opportunity to contribute their perspectives, knowledge, and expertise to help inform the scope of the plan, to ensure it is inclusive and responsive to the needs of the College and the communities the sector serves.

In addition to this, there will be time at the Forum to hear updates from CVS Falkirk & District on health and wellbeing initiatives, as well as an opportunity for attendees to share their own updates with colleagues.

To join the Forum, please access the MS Teams meeting (linked for your convenience) on the day of the event (Wednesday 5 March, 10am – 12pm), or use the meeting details below:
