Neill Boddington

Neill has worked at the OU since 2019 and is a Senior Manager in an Innovations team with responsibility for the online mental health and wellbeing services provided for students. Previously he worked for a large local council, managing their employee wellbeing programme and has a background in the leisure and fitness sector.

Before taking on his new role in the Innovations team, Neill was a Mental Health Adviser for the OU. This role involved advising staff on how to support students who are experiencing mental health difficulties, helping to develop new procedures and strategies to support student mental health and wellbeing, and delivered training on a range of mental health related topics. Neill is also a Mental Health First Aid Instructor and continues to deliver the Mental Health First Aid training courses to OU staff.

Outside of work, Neill has recently relocated to North Yorkshire so enjoys trail runs and walks in the North York Moors and cycling up big hills!
