We're a very new committee - formed at the start of the '24-25 academic year - watch this space as we grow to find out more about us.
Although we haven't been around for long, we have already launched a couple of projects, particularly on creating accessible spaces for PET students. We aim to be a space to advocate for disabled and neurodivergent students, provide resources, and be a welcoming and inclusive community space.
