Our mission:
To raise the quality, profile, availability, and accessibility of Nightline services so that every student is aware of, and has access to, confidential emotional peer support, as well as the opportunity to volunteer for a Nightline.
Nightline services work on the frontlines; they are our student volunteers answering calls and offering a listening ear. They are operational.
The Association works on a more strategic level; supporting new set-ups, developing external relationships, overseeing our Good Practice Guidelines accreditation, maintaining our IT services and representing the student voice. We host events every year which offer training and networking opportunities for our affiliated services, as well as host our Council and AGM sessions.
