Funding in further education?

stranger

I am hoping to go back to college next year.

Does anyone know if there's any funding for non-medical helpers, coloured paper, (this is very expensive) and other disability related stuff please?

There is no disabled students allowance for further education.

  • Thanks. That link worked for me.

    I had a reply this morning. I was told they'll offer the same support as last time. What support? They accused me and my consultants of lying, tried to put labels on me for learning difficulties which I can't possibly have and refused to allow someone to help me with my reading. They claimed it's because I need to learn to do it myself. It's not that I can't read - the effort required to read is much more than non-visually impaired people.
