Disability support
Meet with a Disability Adviser
Book an appointment with a Disability Adviser to talk about any disability related issues.
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:
