Disabi lity History Month starts on Monday 15 November. To coincide with this\, we are restarting our Disabled students community group.

\n\n

Discussion forums

\n\n

We are hosting four discussion f orums. We are inviting students to attend to discuss their experiences in the University. This includes the following topics\, as well as whether we should introduce '\;neurodiversity'\; to the name and purpose of the group:

\n\n

14:00 - 14:15 Digital accessibility: Access ible teaching materials\, access to lecture recordings\, alternative asse ssment for all modules. \; \;
14:15 - 14:30 Physical a ccessibility: Lifts\, rooms\, transport. \;
14:30 - 14:45 TLSR: Being put in place. \; \;
15 minute break
15:00 - 15:15 Teaching and learning experience: Slides being release d before lectures\, equipment\, reading materials\, lecture timings (brea ks). \; \;
15:15 - 15:30 Culture

\n\n

We will use the \;information gathered at these discussions to inform ou r work with the University to make learning a more accessible and inclusi ve experience for everybody.

\n\n

Further event details

\n\n
Both disabled and/or neurodiverse students\, and other s tudents with an interest in the topic are invited to join the discussion. \;
\n\n
To ensure the events are accessible to the greatest num ber of students\, there will be both in-person and online discussions.&nb sp\;While shorter and less structured than the main session\, the online session will still provide an opportunity to share your thoughts on all t he topics listed above. \;
\n\n
\n
In-person 14:00 - 15:30. \;Students can join to discuss as \;many topics as they like.&nb sp\;
\n

Accessibility
\n\n
If you have any access or dietary requirements we should know about\, please let us know using the booking form.
\n\n
Community groups< /strong>
\n\n
We&rsquo\;re planning to restart \;our eight comm unity groups for students who identify as - or ally with - people with pa rticular backgrounds. \;
\n\n
They will be a place for students to create a community \;of likeminded people\, while providing an opp ortunity to run campaigns and hold events.
\n\n
The community groups will also help us to communicate \;students&rsquo\; experiences and opinions to the University.
\n\n
A big part of our work is boosting the student voice and campaigning on issues that matter to you. To do tha t effectively\, we need to understand students'\; viewpoints and exper iences. That'\;s where community groups come in!
\n\n
We will be helping to set up the groups in the first instance\, with students later leading the groups&rsquo\; activity.
