Disability Support

Lincoln is flat, compact and accessible.

Disabled parking spaces are provided throughout the campus.

Vehicles using the spaces must display a current mobility parking permit, as well as a staff or student parking permit.

Our Halls of Residence also contain a number of rooms suitable for students with a range of disabilities or injuries.

Advance notice of your decision to attend Lincoln means those who may be involved in your support can plan ahead including a Life Links Assessment which may be a key step for your entry into the halls.

We want to make your study at Lincoln as easy as possible.

Inclusive Education is here to support students with a disability, injury or illness to make the most of their studies.

This might include physical, sensory and learning disabilities, mental health needs or short and long term injuries and illnesses.

We help with things like:

• Provision of a reader/writer 
• Extra time
• Support for tests and examinations
• Computer or special equipment
• Copying lecture notes
• Helping with editing assignments
• Rest breaks.
