This Disability History Month, we’re celebrating Life Beyond the Classroom – highlighting the experiences, achievements, and community of disabled students at the University of Glasgow.
Building on last year’s World Changers Need Access campaign, this year we’re focusing on inclusion across every part of university life — from clubs and societies to events, volunteering, and social spaces. Together with the Disabled Students Society, we’re continuing to push for progress and to recognise the contributions of disabled people at UofG and beyond.
Join us as we celebrate, learn, and take action towards a campus where everyone can participate fully.
