- Full-range NMH provision: We cover the complete spectrum of non-medical help (NMH) roles - including a specialist network of over 400 BSL Interpreters - utilising flexible hybrid delivery to accommodate out-of-hours student needs.
- Targeted staffing: When internal capacity strains, we quickly deploy qualified Disability and Wellbeing Advisers to help your teams navigate short-term vacancies, maternity cover, or peak backlogs.
Real impact: turning crisis into success
When these specialists 1:1 interventions are embedded, vulnerable students thrive. Take Jen, a Criminology student with dyspraxia. After unexpectedly receiving a low grade, she experienced an overwhelming academic crisis. Struggling with processing and organisation, Jen seriously considered dropping out of university entirely.
Matched with a dedicated Randstad 1:1 specialists, Jen received a practical lifeline. Together, they mastered assignment planning and rebuilt her confidence. Jen stayed enrolled, progressed successfully, and noted: "I honestly believe I would have dropped out of uni without the support."
