Hello,
I have been a member of the Disabled Students Group since 2016 and a Committee Member since 2018 and have met some wonderful people. I have Turners Syndrome which causes a variety of health issues including congenital heart defects and a hearing impairment. Regarding learning in general it can also cause moderate learning difficulties which for me includes Dyslexia. I try to offer support to other students as much as I can, especially through the Disabled Students Group Facebook page and the forums on the Open University Website. I am often touched by the level of support members show each other and can honestly say that I am so glad I joined and will do my best to keep the group going strong.
