Welcome from our team

The Disability Support & Inclusion Team offers information, advice and guidance to prospective and current disabled students. When we refer to the term 'disability' we also include long-term medical or mental health conditions and Specific learning difficulties (SpLDs).

Applicants

If you would like to know more about possible support options and cannot find the right information in these pages, contact us. The team will be happy to advise you about funding options, examples of support strategies and if helpful, arrange an information visit to the university, so you can meet with relevant staff and have the opportunity to raise any concerns you may have about studying here.

We encourage applicants to attend an Open Day for an opportunity to meet with staff and students and explore the university campus:
