Self‑Advocacy at University: Owning Your Story, Your Needs & Your Strengths
Event description
Event description
Studying at university with a disability, long‑term condition, or learning difference can feel overwhelming — but it doesn’t have to be. This interactive workshop will help you understand what happens when you disclose a disability to the university, how information is shared and how self-advocacy can enhance your student experience. Together, we’ll explore how self‑advocacy can feel empowering rather than daunting.
You’ll reflect on your own comfort levels around disclosure, learn strategies for communicating your needs confidently, and discover how to take a proactive, strengths‑focused approach. These strategies can help you highlight your strengths, needs, and preferred ways of working, building skills that support your studies now and your professional life in the future.
