📢 Join the Disabled Leaders Network for an empowering session on Advocating for Change! Lucy, a member from the DLN, will be offering her insights and practical advice on pushing for change, particularly within universities and higher education.

It was great to rep @ChangeDisabled at @Wonkhe’s Secret Life of Students Event yesterday, chatting with Abi Hamer from EHRC. On a day when an awful green paper for disabled people was released, it was inspiring to see so many in HE eager to improve things for disabled students.

Amy is one of the experts sharing their insights on workplace adjustments, the Disability Confident Scheme, and key support pathways at our upcoming Access to Work event later this Month.

I'm speaking later today for @ChangeDisabled at the Higher Education Policy forum conference @wfpevents “Next steps for supporting disabled students in Higher Education”.
