Accessibility for Disabled Visitors and Residents in University Accommodation

As part of the University of Glasgow, Residential Services is committed to providing an accessible environment to all disabled visitors and residents. Whilst the University has many original buildings dating back to the 19th Century, a comprehensive programme of modifications is in place throughout the campus. All newer buildings are designed to be fully compliant.

If you are intending to apply for University accommodation, or if you anticipate visiting any of the accommodation sites, please contact us as soon as possible so that we can discuss your particular requirements and ensure that adjustments can be made where necessary. We would draw particular attention to our advanced visit facility, where we are happy to organise preferential access to accommodation for short trial periods. This is intended to assist in ensuring that you identify the most suitable facilities for your particular needs.

If you wish to arrange an advance visit, have any questions or concerns, or require this information in an alternative format, you or your representative should feel free to contact Karen Morton, 0141 330 4067 or email K.Morton@admin.gla.ac.uk, as the designated access facilitator, who will be happy to discuss your requirements and provide advice.

If you are organising an event or conference using any of the accommodation sites, you should give early consideration to access and facility requirements and Karen Morton will again be happy to discuss arrangements and review provision accordingly.
