What is a Student Assistance Programme (SAP)?
An SAP is a confidential programme designed to help you deal with personal or student-related problems. The problems could be affecting your home life, education, health, and general wellbeing. Health Assured have teamed up with Moulton College to provide this service.
Our SAP service provides a complete support network that offers expert advice and compassionate guidance 24/7, covering a wide range of issues.

That’s why you can call us anytime, anywhere to access in-the moment support from one of our counsellors. Whatever you want to discuss, we are here to listen.
