Skill: National Bureau for Students With Disabilities.

Skill is a charity, founded in 1974, which promotes opportunities for young people and adults with a disability in post-16 education, training and employment across the UK.
Skill believes that for many disabled people education is the key to leading a fulfilling and independent life.

Skill provides a free information and advice service for individual disabled people and the professionals who work with them, via a freephone helpline, email and the website. This information and advice helps disabled people to overcome financial and physical barriers, ignorance and discrimination so that they can study, train or find work.

Skill informs and influences key policy makers to improve legal rights and support for disabled people in post-16 education and training.

Skill works together with individual disabled people, professionals working in education, training and careers, employers and disability organisations to influence government.

Skill membership keeps professionals up to date and informed about policy changes, providing the opportunity for exchanging information and ideas and to be more closely involved with Skill's work

Skill runs topical conferences and seminars

Skill produces informative and practical publications

Skill provides consultancy and staff training for colleges, universities and other organisations.
Skill conducts research and develops projects on education and disability issues to address gaps in provision and to take forward new ideas.
