Disability Equality at UCL Engineering
Information for disabled staff, students, and visitors at UCL, as well as those supporting persons with disabilities.
Part of UCL Engineering's ethos to inclusivity means supporting disabled people in our community. Taking accessibility seriously helps everyone. While we have much work ahead of us, we are striving to do better and to listen and be guided by the needs of disabled people.
