DISABILITY AND DYSLEXIA CENTRE

ADAPTED ACCOMMODATION

The Disability and Dyslexia Centre supports disabled students to realise their academic potential by working with academic colleagues to improve the teaching and learning environment. It is validated by the Scottish Government to undertake Needs Assessments.

The University’s Student Accommodation Service has a number of adapted flats. If you need adaptations or equipment, you should contact the Student Accommodation Service directly to discuss your requirements on + 44 (0)1224 262130

We support individuals with physical and sensory impairments, health conditions, dyslexia or other specific learning differences, and those with short- or long-term support needs. The service employs a dedicated Enabling Technologist who provides advice and support in the use of assistive and enabling technology, and an Educational Psychologist. For further information about the specific support we offer, please contact the Disability and Dyslexia Service on +44 (0)1224 262103 or email disability@rgu.ac.uk

Support for those who are, or have been, in care As part of its commitment to widening access, the University offers additional support to those who are, or have been, in the care of a local authority. You can inform us of this through your UCAS application, following which a member of our Study Skills and Access Unit team will be in touch to discuss your requirements further.
