University of Plymouth Autism Social Group (PAS) 

Weekly during term time (starting 28 September 2022), 15:30–17:00 at the Pastoral and Spiritual Support building. 
University of Plymouth Autism Social & Support Group (PAS) is a social and support group for students by students who have an autism diagnosis, led by Disability Advisors. Describing the group, students say that it is 'a group for autistic students, where we can meet up weekly with like-minded people, giving us the opportunity to be ourselves and gain confidence with other people in a social environment'. The group aims to be a fun environment and give members a chance to explore topics related to University life and try new activities.
New members welcome at any time. For further information, please contact Sarah Anderson or Dan Collings (Disability Advisors).

To protect it, register it!

Reduce property crime
Thousands of items of property are lost or stolen each year in the UK. The Immobilise National Property Register already holds the details of 28 million items of property. The Student Hub can help you add yours to protect your property and to help the police stop property crime.


Register

Register your property free by visiting the Student Hub or www.immobilise.com; it only takes a couple of minutes and once you have registered you will have a better chance of getting your property back if it’s lost or stolen.


Report

If any item of registered property is lost or stolen, report it to Immobilise via your online account. This information is then made available nationally to all of the major UK police forces through their online systems.

Reunite
If your registered property is recovered, either the police or Immobilise will contact you and let you know its location.
