Is there any financial help available?

Students will have to bring a suitable device to take part but there may be help available in purchasing a device if required.

There is financial support available for eligible disabled students. This funding is normally available for UK residents and the Student Disability Service can assist with any claims. SDS can also attempt to find funding for international and EU students.

The Advice Place has a guide to extra funding for students. There are many small grants and bursaries available, some specifically for the purchase of equipment, but many are very particular about who they will fund - e.g. based on secondary school, member of a specific College or subject area, etc.
