Lorraine Yates is a Social Worker (employed by Catholic Care), and is here to offer a completely confidential service to any student in College who may be faced with any personal issues. You might want to see her just once, or come every week for as long as you need. People come and talk to her about family problems, depression, relationship problems, pregnancy, health worries, and a whole range of other things that could be getting you down.
You will be listened to and treated with respect, and either work out together a way forward, or maybe find out about other places you can go for help.
Lorraine doesn’t usually talk to parents or teachers about what you say, however sometimes this is useful and she may discuss this with you if she feels it would benefit you.
If you or someone you know isn’t safe, Lorraine would have a duty to pass that information on to someone who could help. This will be explained more if a situation like that occurred.
You can book yourself an appointment through the Student Services diary at Reception, or contact Lorraine by e-mail: lorrainey@ndonline.ac.uk
Lorraine works in the Columba Room on the second floor of the Cuvilly building next door to the exams office and is available Monday and Friday 8.50 – 4, Wednesday 8.50 – 12.
