Help and support
The Disability Services main office is located on Level 5 of the Jane Foss Russell Building next to City Road, on the Camperdown/Darlington Campus.
Disability Services Officers are also available at Cumberland or selected other campuses. Please advise which campus you are located at when booking an appointment.
Disability Services Officers
Our Disability Services Officers have expertise in a variety of backgrounds including health sciences, psychology, teaching, occupational and rehabilitation therapy. This gives them an excellent understanding of how a disability may affect a student’s ability to manage their studies and meet their academic potential.
Our officers liaise with your faculty or school to provide you with reasonable adjustments and support. However, please be aware that our services do not include counselling or case management, and we can’t intervene on matters of academic appeal or leniency.
Faculty or school Disability Liaison Officers
Each faculty or school has at least one Faculty Disability Liaison Officer (FDLO), a voluntary role appointed by the Dean. This person provides a link between the faculty and Disability Services. Being a member of your faculty, the FDLO can provide quick advice and support specific to your learning environment.
