Wow its that time of year again where we get to welcome all the new intake of students, and the line up of events are fantastic, so don't miss out on anything and if you haven't yet bought your wristband then do it now!!!
Last year we set up 'Chill & Chat' sessions where disabled students could meet up and get to know each other, where they could meet students that they would not neccessarily meet on their course. Its a relaxing 45mins-hour where we bring along a coffee (and sometimes lunch depending on time that we meet) and sit down and chill out, share experiences, offer peer support and laugh!!! I am planning to hold a session on Tuesday of Welcome Week at 1pm (exact location to be verified nearer the time), everyone is welcome, bring a friend and chill out in a safe space away from all the excitement. I look forward to meeting you!!!!
Please join the facebook group if you havn't already (University of Worcester Disabled Student's Group), my email address is sudisability@worc.ac.uk if anybody wants to book an appointment to speak to me privately (in confidence). The SU has a wonderful lady, Kate Gynn, who is available to make appointments with regarding any academic support.
See you all soon!!!!
