 I am desperate for an ipad or similar, 

 

1. i am partially sighted

2 i have endometriosis and stuggle sitting at a desk even for 30 mins.

3 my laptop is broken

4 were in a debt repayment plan, partner earns to much for me to qualify for anything.

if anyone knows where i can get some help, i am really stuggling. 

I say an ipad as the ou has a special open uni with itunes, and i can connect a keyboard to it.

Hi

Sorry to hear of the problems you are experiencing. I would suggest speaking to Disabled Student Services as they may be able to help you. On their website it states that if you are not eligible , relevant equipment can be loaned to you from the OU.

Contact details are here or:
