Does anyone know anyone whose child has just started at Cambridge uni or another top 10 uni?

I am looking for families and students who can talk to me and the focus in on student mental health and depression, and settling in during the first term- it's a piece aimed at parents in a national paper.

I will post this under media requests but wanted to try and fathom out first if there would be much response.

Yes, I have but I would need to talk to them first if what I say is going to be published in a national paper! Is it the Daily Mail :)

You might want to speak to Riven, her DD1 is at Cambridge. Not implying any MH issues of course.

My DS has just started at UCL, which is pretty high in the league tables.

I finished at Cambridge last year, if that is helpful at all?

I know it's not exactly your brief, but I think your focus is really relavent for the university.
