A variety of issues fall into the category of 'welfare': finance, health, disability, child care, academic problems, sexual harassment, racism, safety, accommodation, parking your car, personal problems, overseas students, career decisions and grants. The MCR Welfare Officer is responsible for helping out graduates with these issues. Their main role is to act as a representative for Emmanuel graduates in college matters such as accommodation and safety, but they are also the person to contact if you need advice on how to approach the University about welfare issues. The Welfare Officer receives information from CUSU (the Cambridge University Students' Union), the Graduate Union and the NUS (National Union of Students), and is present at meetings where Cambridge Students' welfare is on the agenda.

The MCR Women's Officer is responsible for the well-being of all individuals in the MCR, providing support and information about an array of personal issues, but with a particular focus on those issues concerning our graduate women. The Women's Officer provides our anonymous pregnancy test service, attends fortnightly Women's Council meetings (refer to www-womens.cusu.cam.ac.uk) and receives and distributes information about sexual health, pregnancy, domestic violence, eating disorders, breast cancer, rape, child care and events for women in Cambridge. Leaflets, posters and other information are placed on the notice boards in Front Court and in the 'Welfare Box' in the MCR. The Women's Officer is there to ensure the rights of women in the Emmanuel MCR and can be consulted if students have issues they would like to be raised within college or at CUSU meetings.
