The Welfare Team is made up of the Male and Female Welfare Officers and five team members. The team exists to provide welfare support to all members of Grey College. We provide information on a wide range of issues affecting students, whether that be Nightbus operating times or sexual health leaflets. The Welfare Team is ultimately there to provide a confidential student listening support service. So, whatever the issue, we hope you will find in us an approachable and useful resource that you can rely upon throughout your time at University.

The role of the Male and Female Welfare Officers is twofold. Firstly, they are responsible for the running of the many welfare campaigns held throughtout the year at Grey as well as organising the welfare team. Secondly, they are available in a support role - remaining contactable 24 hours a day, holding drop-in sessions, responding to online anonymous welfare support submissions and ensuring the welfare of the team members themselves. We like to think we're an approachable and friendly bunch, so please feel free to contact either the officers or the team with any issues.

Tom McMinigal Tom is studying Economics and Politics, and next year will be living at Elvet Crescent (the lazy man's destination!) He comes from the island of Jersey and spends a lot of time on the beach attempting to tan, but turning out like a lobster. Tom enjoys pretty much all sport but plays most like he has two left feet. His idea of heaven involves a nice cup of rosy lee and a few games of Call of Duty! He is also a bit of a nerd when it comes to most genres of music and he loves his films.
