Welcome to all new - and returning - students
If you are a disabled student and feel that you need support with your course of studies, please contact us as soon as possible.
Can you help us to help others?
The Student Disability Service is hoping to develop short video clips that will provide information to students about some of the support that is available. We need people who would be prepared to be interviewed on film for which you will get paid. We would welcome contributions from current or past students.
