"Spiking can happen to anyone and it can be perpetrated by anyone, so it follows that anyone and everyone should come together to change the shape of the world that allows such things to happen.

We all can, and must, make a difference."

I hate the trope of "disabled people should stop complaining because they're a monolith and all have the same needs"

[NUS Disabled Student Campaigners Network @NUSDSC]

The process for accessing the Disabled Student Allowance is slow, inaccessible and doesn't ensure quality insurance

Join us, if you too believe that we need a drastic DSA reform and an inclusive education that is free, accessible, fully funded, and lifelong!

[NUS UK @nusuk]

Disabled students should not have to face multiple barriers to accessing education and support❌

If you too believe in a drastic DSA reform and building an inclusive education system, join our Liberation networks and sign up to our mailing list:
