Help for students with disabilities

If you are a student with disabilities there are a number of organisations that work tirelessly to ensure that you are not disadvantaged either at your place of study or employment. If you have an impairment, health condition (including mental health conditions) or a specific learning difficulty like dyslexia, you may also be entitled to claim extra financial help as a student. This is paid on top of anything you get through the standard student finance package. Check out these organisations to see how they might be able to help you.
