Hi @UKC_access a student has reported lifts not working in the Sibson building. Could this be checked out please?

ID: text reads: Do you have an ILP? We want to know about your experience. Laid out on a light blue background with an orange outline in opposing corners. There is a graphic of a mortar board and a stack of books.

[UKC Accessibility Network @NetworkUKC]

The accessibility network are advocating for better implementation of ILPs. But to truly make a difference we need your stories!

[UKC Accessibility Network @NetworkUKC]

What did or didn’t go right for you? And how would a better ILP (independent learning plan), or better implementation of your ILP help you in achieving your degree?

Here are some LGBTQ+ volunteering opportunities🏳️‍🌈

These roles differ in hours, skills required, flexibility and location so you can find volunteering roles that suit you!

Some roles are specifically open to LGBTQ+ volunteers, while others are open to allies too✨
