Oliver Moores – Step by Step Funding Guide
“My name is Oliver Moores and I am a disabled university student in my second year of a business degree at Edge Hill University. I struggled to obtain funding for my care and educational needs. I worked alongside Barnardo’s in Lancashire, to put a step by step guide together to help any prospective university students with a disability to obtain to correct funding. Hopefully you will find the resource useful. Please pass it on to any of your colleagues or service users who you think might benefit from this.”
