Hi guys,

If you're reading this then you'll probably one of our incoming freshers, so WOOOO!! Congratulations for getting in! :)

I'm Alex, one of the Welfare and Housing Officers (commonly know as Drs WHO) of the JCR. We help deal with people's welfare, housing and finance issues. You'll find out more about us (Alice is the other Dr WHO) in Freshers' week. But for now, if there's anything welfarey, housey or financey that you aren't sure about before coming here, feel free to check out our amazing part of the website (http://www.ballioljcr.org/welfare) or drop us an email at jcr.welfare@balliol.ox.ac.uk.

If you're an overseas student and want advice setting up bank accounts and the like, I highly recommend you check out Max and Shreya's part of the website (http://www.ballioljcr.org/welfare/emo) or give them an email. Cos they're awesome.

See you all in September, and don't forget to read Juliette's even better and even more useful post below :)

Alex and Alice xxx
