Does anyone have any thoughts or experience which they'd be prepared to
share? A student has come forward who has ADD history and is in
difficulty now - retaking his first year at present. He
is looking for accommodation (to live in!) next year - and says that he
must have somewhere by himself - he has tried living in hall, and in a
shared house, but finds the distraction insufferable. Clearly though -
the cost of 'single' accommodation (if appropriate for him)would be more
- he's prepared to pay for this though it means him working part time
(not ideal in his case). We are wondering whether DSA might be a source
of funding for extra costs - has anyone been down this road before?
