Student Advisory Board - Student Counselling

The Student Advisory Board (SAB) is a student-led, student/staff partnership, designed to keep the student perspective central to the activities of the Student Counselling Service, Student Learning Development and Student 2 Student (SCS/SLD/S2S).

It is a voluntary board comprised of student volunteers, representatives from student bodies across the university, and staff from SCS, SLD and S2S.

Getting involved with SAB is a great way to bring about positive change in the student experience and represent the student community. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to reach out to us on social media, or email us at tcdsab.info@gmail.com.
