BBC Radio Scotland - Personal Best, Student Special

A guide to a healthy, happy student life so that your kids - and you - can survive intact!

With thousands of students going off to university for the first time or heading back for a new year, Gillian Russell and the Personal Best team have a guide to healthy, happy student life so that your kids - and you - can survive intact!

Mother of two Sonia shares her experiences of the kind of worries she had about her kids going off to university.

Jodie Waite from the NUS Scotland and Nicole Jackson from Glasgow Caledonian University describe what university life is like these days, the issues students face and the range of advice and support available for both students and parents.

New student Georgia White talks about what she's looking forward to and what she's most anxious about in the weeks ahead.

Health and wellness consultant Iain Bell explains the importance of good nutrition and regular exercise for students and describes how they can adopt a safe and sensible approach to drinking.
