Hi Vicky,
Thanks for reaching out.
We have a few younger ambassadors who would be suitable. However, they are all based outside of London and being students, they wouldn't be able to fund their own travel/accommodation. Do you have any budget for that?
Cheers

Dear Forum,
I am Chair of the cpd25 Task Group 2 “Quality Standards and Legal Frameworks” – further information about the group can be found at: https://www.m25lib.ac.uk/cpd25/cpd25-administration/tg2-quality-standards-and-legal-frameworks/ and we are looking to run an event on Supporting staff and students with spectrum learning disorders focussing on support services including library services in mid to late 2019. We have run similar events to this in the past which have been well attended – a couple of examples can be found at: https://www.m25lib.ac.uk/events/supporting-students-staff-mental-health-disorders-tg2supp/ and https://www.m25lib.ac.uk/events/supporting-staff-students-autism-learning-disorders-event-ref-tg2aut/ Feedback from these events has been very positive and attendees have found having case studies / real life speakers speaking about their experiences very useful.
I was wondering if there would be the possibility of any students who have a spectrum learning disorder who would be willing to speak about their experiences of studying at a HE institution and their experiences of library usage and support. The event would be either held in the morning or afternoon at a location in Central London. We would like our speakers to speak for about 20 minutes with 10 minutes for questions and also to take part in a panel discussion towards the end of the event.
Please could you let me know if this is possible as soon as possible.
Thanks very much
Vicky Robertson
(Chair of cpd25 Task Group 2 – Quality Standards and Legal Frameworks)
