Hannah, We had a "road show" that went round academic departments last year. We managed to speak to significant numbers of academic staff. If I can be of any help please contact me. Best wishes, Syd.

I deliver the mandatory Respecting Diversity sessions for all staff and during these sessions have had many conversations with Academic and Support staff about supporting students - and whether policies exist or not, are relevant or not, etc. So, by all means do get in touch whenever you want to - and if you need specific questions answered - then do ask via e-mail, address or contact numbers given below. Good luck.

I am currently carrying out an ESRC funded PhD project looking at how academic staff draw upon and relate to policy promoting student welfare - in light of the recent torrent of government legislation. I'm particularly focusing on how equality and diversity policy has been taken up at individual, departmental and institutional levels and to consider what changes have been made as a consequence of this to academic relationships and identities. I hope to interview staff in EO specialist roles in universities and I am interested in making contact with individuals for further discussion. I would be very pleased to hear from anyone in the relevant area.
