Disability Comedy Writing Workshop with GotLimits, Friday the 12th from 8-10pm, Online.

The Squeaky Wheel, which is the first-ever satire publication to focus on the experience of having a disability, has partnered with the DSN and the Comedy Society to run their 2-hour virtual comedy writing workshop to celebrate Disability Pride this Freshers Week. Their talented authors are responsible for iconic pieces such as ‘You’re Not Autistic!’ Clearly Autistic Parent Scolds Autistic Child, Quadriplegic Wishes Caregivers Could Roll Better Doobies, and oh so many more.

This workshop will run from 8-10pm and, while it is free to attend, you do need to sign-up with the form in our LinkTree, as space is limited. If you sign-up and are no longer able to attend, that is okay, please let us know so that we can offer your space to someone else!

I.D.: A quartet of logos wrap around the top right corner of the post. The first is for The Squeaky Wheel, whose logo features a light blue wheel which is melting slightly, alongside their slogan: “Be loud. Be disabled. Be Squeaky” (The last of these three is in bold!). The second is the blue circular DSN logo, with its rainbow of circles. The third is the Comedy Society’s logo, which features a large white comedy mask with chipper eyes and a beaming open-mouthed smile. The fourth is the GotLimits logo, which features two cartoon people outlines (one in hot pink, the other in medium blue) with a bright yellow shield overlapping half way across their torsos. Below this, a substantial light blue text box reads: “The Squeaky Wheel, which is the first-ever satire publication to focus on the experience of having a disability, has partnered with the DSN and the Comedy Society to run their 2-hour virtual comedy writing workshop to celebrate Disability Pride this Fresher’s Week. / Whilst this event is free to attend, please fill out the form in our LinkTree to let us know you’re coming, as space is limited.” Below this is a final light blue text box, which says: “Friday 12th September, 8-10pm / Online, Sign-Ups via our LinkTree.” To the side of this last text box is a cascade of bright yellow ‘ha ha ha’s, alongside some cartoon comedy masks.

ID: The Disabled Students UK logo sits at the top. The text reads: “Have your voice heard in the Annual Disabled Student Survey! You do not need to have a diagnosis in order to fill in the survey. Disabilities include long term conditions such as chronic illnesses, mental health conditions and neurodiversity.”

If you need a boost to get you through this exam season, then the Study Group is here for you this Thursday.

Join us in the Small Rehearsal Room (or Canada Room, as it is sometimes called) on Thursday 25th May from 3-5pm. You can come along at any point from 3-5pm, and stay for as long as you would like. The Small Rehearsal Room/Canada room is located on the top floor of the Union. Get to the top floor, then turn right after the stairs or lift, and head down the corridor to the door at the end. There will be a chair outside the door with a sign saying, “Neurodivergent Study Group.”

As always, there will be lots of fidgets to use during the session, and some study help-sheets that vou can take away.

ID: At the top of the post, a large text box that reads
“Neurodivergent Study Group Week 15 (Exam Week 1)” is placed on top of a medium yellow background. Beside the text box is the blue and circular DSN logo, with its rainbow of circles. In the middle of the post lies a large text box with a purple border that reads: “15th May, 3-5pm / Small Rehearsal/Canada Room, the Union.” Below this purple border is a block of text that reads: “Bring along any coursework or revision and study with other ND people in a Neurodivergent friendly environment! We’ll have fidgets, study help-sheets, and other useful things.” Underneath the text box is a cute cartoon bee, who is buzzing along a cartoon cobblestone pavement towards a stack of three cartoon books (possibly en route to the ND Study Group!).

TODAY!! Last minute publicity… coursework is my worst enemy right now. Come along this afternoon and get your DSN exam pack. We have a range of items available. In order to remain sustainable, we ask that you bring your own tote bag (perhaps even the DSN tote bag you got last semester), but we do have some if you need it :))

See you there :))

ID: A bright, colorful poster with a blue background, rainbow stripes, and dotted decorations. At the top, inside a circle, it says “DSN Revision Packs Giveaway” with the DSN logo (a cluster of multicolored circles) nearby.

Main text in a rounded white box reads:
“We’re doing our revision packs giveaway again this semester to help you through the revision & coursework blues! Come along anytime to collect fidgets, allergen-friendly snacks, flash cards, puzzles & much more. If you’re lucky, you may even win a gift card to use at a local business in town!”

At the bottom in a rounded bubble:
“Monday 5 May, 12pm–4pm
Soc Room A, Union”

The design is cheerful and vibrant, with an inviting and supportive tone.
