Widening participation
The Outreach and Widening Participation Team is passionate about breaking down barriers to studyWe work to provide students with targeted support that suits their needs. We can visit your college to talk to staff about our Student Services or meet with your students and discuss the details of applying to university. We aim to provide a reassuring voice: "We’re with you all the way!"

BME females into STEM
STEM skills gap is a current educational challenge. Women are significantly underrepresented in STEM-related career fields. We aim to raise awareness of STEM careers to female learners and provide them with role models of BME females in STEM careers.
Care Experienced
We support Care Experienced Students on their journey, providing support specific to the application process.
If you contact us directly, we'll break down the entire application process, giving a timeline of deadlines and helping you to find the right course for you.

Students with disabilities and dyslexia
We understand that every individual is different and that each person’s disability can affect them in different ways. This is why we work closely with the University’s Disability and Dyslexic Support Team to ensure we provide appropriate advice and guidance for each individual.
If a student has already made an application to the University, we advise them to contact our Disability and Dyslexia Support Team.
