Disabled Student Allowance

If you have a disability, health condition or learning difficulty, you may be able to apply for support funding through Disabled Student Allowances (DSAs). Allowances are needs and evidence-based; you may be entitled to specialist equipment, non-medical helpers (NMH) and/or additional travel costs, dependent on your individual situation.

Confidential support

If you are struggling with anything and would like to talk about it then Confetti offers a confidential support service. You can either meet face to face or get advice online.

Either drop into Student Services to book an appointment or contact us directly at studentservicesreferrals@confetti.ac.uk. Please note the content of your disclosure will be kept confidential except in the following circumstances:

• Where information given is indicating risk of abuse
• Where there is a serious perceived risk of harm to you or to others
• Where you give consent to breach confidentiality, for example if you would like us to make a referral to a permanent counsellor or set up a joint tutorial
• Where there are definite plans in place to harm yourself
• When the staff member is in need of support or guidance from their supervisor
• If records are demanded by the courts
