Introduction to Disability @ Strathclyde<https://universityofstrathclyde.newsweaver.com/cvg4pnmkid/1ho532ts0dpw5sb93d38j4/external?email=true&a=1&p=64206882&t=33757851>

[https://universityofstrathclyde.newsweaver.com/v3files/shard1/85313/3c/e75e66fbe727d6cbadfdd3.jpg]



This session will increase awareness of disability and examine how we can support disabled students and colleagues.



Disability is a protected characteristic under the Equality Act 2010, but what do we mean by the term 'disability', who comes under it, how can we best support disabled students and staff, and how can we recognise and address the barriers faced in work and study environments?



This session is led by colleagues from the Equality & Diversity Office and the Disability & Wellbeing Service.
