Dear Sarah
I suggest you contact Kathy Williams, Manager of the Recording Centre for
the Blind at this institution (University of Wales Swansea). Email:
[log in to unmask] - I am sure that she will be able to assist.
We don't tend to produce the whole prospectus in Braille, as it would be
enourmous and individual students have no real need to read it from cover to
cover. A normal circumstance would be for the introduction, student support
(and the other material about the student union, facilities etc. at the
beginning) be brailled, along with specific course summaries, as requested.
The Disability Statement plus any departmental brochures could also be sent
out too.
Richard.
