Ever felt like education just wasn’t designed for you?

That’s something many adults struggle with, especially when balancing work, health, family life, or returning to studying after years away from education.

One of our learners, Ann Marie, shared how important accessibility was to her as a wheelchair user when deciding whether returning to education would even feel possible.

That’s why accessibility in education matters. Flexible, inclusive learning can open doors, rebuild confidence, and help more people move towards the future they want.

This Global Accessibility Awareness Day (GAAD), we’re highlighting the importance of making learning work for more people.

From the tour bus to the ambulance, Tom’s journey is proof that it’s never too late to follow your ‘Why.’

As a self-described non-academic who navigated school with ADHD and dyslexia, Tom once felt that university was out of reach. He spent years pushing limits in the music industry and the world of competitive powerlifting, but that childhood dream of becoming a Paramedic was always there, waiting for the right moment.

Now, Tom is using his Access to Higher Education Diploma (Paramedic Science) to bridge the gap to university. Between touring the UK as a guitar tech and earning his karate black belt, he’s proving that when you’re locked in and supported, no goal is too big.

"The future is mine to build. I will continue to build until I get where I’m going." — Tom.
