Our 2026 Care Day survey captured the feedback of our care experienced students.
We rolled out our survey in February as part of our Care Day 2026 celebrations. Gathering student voice helps shape our support and we always welcome feedback, so get in touch if you have any ideas or thoughts!
- The support from the named contacts (Sinead and Rhiannon, seen below) was rated an average of 4.82 out of 5
- The support from Âé¶¹Íø was rated an average of 4.3 out of 5
- 100% of students receiving the Care Experienced Bursary found this helpful to their studies
- 100% of students who have used the SUQCESS Project have found it helped with their studies
