Disability Liaison Officers

What a Disability Liaison Officer (DLO) is, and how to contact yours.

Off

What is a Disability Liaison Officer?

Disability Liaison Officers (DLOs) are members of University staff based in your department who are a designated point of contact for disabled students. Each academic department has at least one, listed below.

Your departmental DLO is a good first point of contact if you have a question about how things work in your department, or how to access additional support. You can contact them if you have a question or concern, particularly if it's related to your department's support or processes.

With your permission, we'll send the DLOs in your academic department(s) information about your disability, and make recommendations around how your department can best support you.
