Welcome and thank you for your interest in Helping Hand!
This project means to bring together the community of disabled and chronically ill students and center our experiences, grievances and joy while studying. For now, there are two main parts to this project: monthly meetings and peer-support for medical or disability-related issues, where students can be paired up with someone with the skills, time or space to help them out!
We host meetings in The Hague and Leiden every month. To ensure the safety of all members of our community, you might be asked to wear a mask during our meetings.
We have created a whatsapp group for students interested in the project which you can join here.

Note: Non-disabled people are welcome to join, but not to use this as a space to learn and de-construct their ableism, but rather to support other students. The experiences and needs of disabled and chronically ill students will be prioritised in our space.
Helping hand is backed-up by the JEDI fund of the Humanities faculty, but everyone is welcome to join!
For any questions, feel free to reach out to us at helpinghand@hum.leidenuniv.nl
