For Students with Disability and/or Caring Responsibilities

What is a disability?

Disability is a complex interaction between a person, their condition and their environment. It can be physical, medical, intellectual, psychological, learning, sensory, and immunological, and its course can be chronic, fluctuating, and/or temporary. Disability is also not always visible; invisible illnesses and mental health illnesses and conditions are often not obvious to other people.
