Suing due to disability discrimination

Does anyone know how I'd go about this please? I know there's criteria, such as time limit, etc. which I'm well within.

In my case, (it has been mentioned on here before) I can't attend a college because they've denied me reasonable adjustments which have been recommended by 2 unis (and were followed by said unis) and a previous college followed the same recommendations.

They tried to justify their refusal by:

- deciding I don't have Autism (it's in writing that I have it)

- telling me I don't need those recommendations as recommended by 2 qualified disabled students allowance (DSA) providers

- telling me that I have equipment I can use which solves the issue. They don't solve the issue.

- telling me that people with severe physical disabilities don't get help (how is that legal?)

They claimed it was all down to money - that's their justification.

This has meant I'm going to have try and find somewhere much further away to continue my education, for which there really is nothing.

    I have contacted NAS and haven't had a response yet. I've been waiting a few weeks for them to reply to me.

    It might just be worth getting back in touch and asking what's happening. The person you've contacted might not be able to say much more than I have, but someone may have some more specific advice. It will be useful to know (privately, if you don't want to say so here) where in the UK you are based, as this does make a difference.

    Sorry for the delay.

    Best wishes,
