Building your support network

Moving to a new city or country, working across multiple sites, working independently for long periods of time, working remotely – there are lots of reasons why researchers can feel alone and isolated from their friends, family and support networks. Discover opportunities below to make new connections across the University and build a local support network. 

• Staff Networks – discover staff equality networks and groups across the University that you can join for informal networking, peer support, consultation and events 

• A sense of community, identity and belonging – Dr Joan Chang and Dr Blanca Perez-Sepulveda reflect on the importance of community building and connecting with others as postdocs.
