The Positive Peers are a team of students trained to help fellow students thrive through creating student-only spaces where they support and learn from each other.
The Positive Peers are a key part of KCLSU Wellbeing and contribute to our community's commitment to improve student mental health and wellbeing.
Applications are now open to join the Positive Peers.
This is a voluntary role for 3-5 hours per week.
If you are passionate about improving the health and wellbeing of the King's community, we want to hear from you! All training will be provided.
