Hey everyone,
I’m Jen, your new Disabled Students’ Officer for the next academic year.
It is quite exciting to be starting this blog – I’m already looking forward to September when new students start and old students return to Birmingham. The new committee for DAMSA (Disability and Mental Health Students Association) and myself are in full planning mode for Freshers Week and beyond.
If you want to get in contact with DAMSA you can email the committee at disability@guild.bham.ac.uk. Any volunteers who wish to help out at societies fair will be most welcome.
Looking forward for next term, especially with DAMSA, is only possible due to all the hard work that the previous DSO, Sophie Bailey, put into her role last year. So thank you and good luck in the future Sophie!
If anyone has any questions or concerns before term starts please feel free to email me at j.kirk@guild.bham.ac.uk or dso@guild.bham.ac.uk.
Enjoy your summer and I’m looking forward to meeting you all in September!
