We will assist with booking interpreters, access workers or other personnel as required. Applicants will be responsible for their own personal care and home support needs. We are happy to discuss with you in advance of making an application if you are unsure.

Any additional access support required to make the application will be covered if agreed in advance.  This includes BSL interpreters, scribes, access workers and assistance with formatting. Please e-mail vicky@graeae.org if we can help with this.
