Meet with a Disability Adviser

There are dedicated Disability Advisers for each academic school.

Disability Advisers provide advice and support with:

• Disabled Student Allowances (DSAs)
• Exam adjustments
• Study related adjustments
• Signposting to and liaison with specialist support services and academic departments.

Disability Advisers can also work with you to create a Learning Support Plan (LSP) or Personal Emergency Evacuation Plan (PEEP). With your permission, we share these with other relevant members of staff.

We may ask you to complete a form as part of your appointment: 

• Personal Emergency Evacuation Plan (PEEP) form (docx, 27.8 kB)
• Epilepsy questionnaire (doc, 68 kB)
