Celebrating Disability History Month
“There is a lot of support at Imperial, from the Disability Advisory Service to the student mental health service, accommodation teams and academic tutors.”
Amy Lloyd Evans is a fourth-year medical student and Disabilities Officer for Imperial College Union.
Amy said that she first felt able to be open about, and celebrate, her disability when she joined Imperial.
“I’ve always been disabled and, even though I didn’t know it for a lot of my life, it’s shaped all my experiences, beliefs and values. I try my best to be welcoming and inclusive to everyone because I understand the feeling of being othered for something you can’t, or don’t want to, change.
