Hello, I am a new Disabilities Officer at the University of North London and
I'd like some help with funding suggestions.
Does anyone know if it is possible to get funding for money for counsellors?
Has anyone ever successfully got money for this through the DSA? A student
coming in september is seeing a counsellor privately and would like to continue
seeing the same one, but would need help with funding to do so. Any
suggestions welcome!
Secondly, a mature student (40) doing a part time Caribbean and Womens Studies
degree would like help with funding for books and photocopying. She has
mobility difficulties arising from compression of lumbar discs and crumbling
bones in her neck. She recieves Disbility Living Allowance and Incapacity
Benefit as well as Industrial Injuries Benefit. She is paying for her course
through a superannuation fund. I have given her the SKILL list of charities
but she thinks she does not fit into their categories as she is 40 years old.
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks for your help
Victoria Pettipher
