There are a number of Support Services at Swansea University who strive to make our student’s experience a inclusive and rewarding one. There is also another less formal group who dedicate their time to promote inclusive behaviour and attitudes amongst Professional Services staff and service users and to create a positive and inclusive learning environment in libraries and other university services. The Inclusive Services Group supports the University in its objective to realise the potential of all students and staff whatever their protected characteristic (age, sex, race, gender reassignment, disability, sexual orientation, marriage or civil partnership, pregnancy and maternity, religion and belief). In this episode Mandy and Pamela talk to the group’s chair Philippa Price and the secretary Tina Webber, to learn more about some of the projects that the group have been involved with recently.
