Dear colleagues,
Just to let you know, we have been successful in obtaining funds from
HEFCE under their current funding programme to establish an
administrative centre for NADO. This will enable us to appoint a full-
time administrator for the association. This person will be based at our
Lincoln campus and will be responsible for supporting the further
development of the association. Clearly HEFCE is supportive of efforts
to professionalise the role of disability advisor and to improve the
consistency of high quality services across the sector.
For those of you with a particular interest in NADO there is to be a
workshop at the Skill Working through HE Conference in December
intended to obtain the views of delegates and inform them of past and
future work in forming the association.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank all of the people who have
supported our work so far, especially the funding council for their active
commitment in this endeavour.
Could I remind colleagues that there is a NADO mailbase list which
discusses topics associated with NADO’s development.
