StödHankeiter
We are SSHV’s Support Persons (StödHankeiter)! If you feel like you want to talk to someone, we are here for you. You can contact us if you feel lonely or if you are having a difficult time with your studies, routines, or well-being. We can help you through our own experiences or simply be there to listen.
What is a StödHankeit?
A StödHankeit is a volunteer student association member who has completed training in Mental Health First Aid 2. You can contact any of us StödHankeiter directly via WhatsApp, by approaching one of us in person, or by sending an email to our shared address: stodhankeiter@sshv.fi. Remember that everything you share with a StödHankeit is confidential. This means that your matter will not be shared with anyone unless you give permission.
StödHankeiter are not professionals, but we can offer support and, if needed, help guide you to professional help. Do not hesitate to contact us — you do not have to be alone with your thoughts. We want to work towards a healthy student association!
I know that it is not always easy to put your feelings into words, but I also know how relieving it can be to talk and let your thoughts out. I also know what it feels like when worry takes over – that is why I am always happy to listen if any of you are experiencing the same. <3
If you have something on your mind, feel free to tap me on the shoulder, or contact me via Instagram or WhatsApp at +358 41 747 0855. If anyone has suggestions for improvements or questions about the StödHankeiter activities, you are also welcome to contact me.
Take care of yourselves!
My name is Benjamin and I am a new Support Person (StödHankeit) for this year! I am 21 years old and originally from Jakobstad. I am currently in my second year at Hanken, and I am also involved in Hanksports. I was also a freshman tutor (gulistutor) in autumn 2023.
Without writing too long of a text, I want to help you if you feel like you do not have anyone to turn to. My hope is that, whether it is something big or small, you will feel safe knowing that there is someone you can reach out to — whether you just need to talk things through or if you need help and are unsure where to turn. The threshold for reaching out is low, and I hope you will feel the same. So don’t hesitate to get in touch — we can meet at school, go for a walk, or I can pour you a cup of coffee! ☕

My name is Lina Granlund, I am 24 years old and come from Vaasa. I am currently in my third year at Hanken, majoring in Management and Organization, and I am also a freshman tutor (gulistutor) for 2025–2026.
We all go through difficult periods sometimes, and during those times it can feel good to talk things through. With me, you can talk about anything at any time — I am happy to help!

I know that it can feel very heavy to try to deal with your thoughts and problems alone, and I don’t think anyone should have to do that by themselves. I am very happy to be here for all of you who have something on your mind. The threshold for reaching out is very low, so no pressure at all.
You can reach me via Instagram, WhatsApp at +358 44 210 4210, or simply come say hello if you see me around <3
Sometimes studies, everyday life, or life in general can feel overwhelming, and it is easy to feel alone in those emotions, even though you are not. I want to be here for you if you are unsure where to turn, or if you simply feel like talking things through. Being able to say your thoughts out loud and process your feelings can be very helpful.
Whether it is something big or small, you can always tap me on the shoulder or contact me via Instagram or WhatsApp at +358 45 145 7117.
Take care of yourself <3
