About University of Sunderland

The life changing University of Sunderland has over 24,000 students based in campuses on the North East coast, in London and Hong Kong and at its global partnerships with learning institutions in 15 countries. We are proud of our long-established commitment to widening participation, our world-leading research, public and private sector collaborations, and our track-record for providing quality student experiences that result in graduates who are the tomorrow-makers of our societies and economies. The University is focused on ensuring our graduates leave equipped with the knowledge, skills, confidence, and connections to make a positive difference in the wider world.

The University of Sunderland has a value of inclusion, and we work hard to create a culture where both staff and students are able to be their true self at work and whilst studying. We think it is critical to assure that our University is accessible for current staff and students and future staff and students. Creating an accessible and inclusive University is supporting those with accessibility needs to have the freedom to live life like everyone else.    

We know everyone's accessibility needs are different which is why we saw AccessAble as an important partner to help us on this journey.  We needed experts to be able to provide us with detailed, accurate information in order that we could provide a stress free experience for those who have accessibility needs.
