Today we have published a background information document about the Government’s open consultation “Improving non-medical help for disabled students in higher education: Government call for evidence”. Along with other leading sector organisations we have provided insights (1/3)

[Mirabel Pelton @MiraPel1]

Great to have had the opportunity to contribute to this.

We found that autism safety plans adapted with advice from the autism community were feasible, safe and acceptable in our pilot trial. Criteria for a full trial were met.
