Booking an event on campus
Student presence on campus
Programmes of study at the University are taught through a combination of in person and online delivery, so students won't always be on campus for classes. Our teams can help you arrange your event for a time when the relevant groups of students are more likely to be available.
Risk assessments
Any event taking place on campus will require a robust risk assessment, and protocols to be followed, in order to go ahead. Our team will guide you through these when you discuss your booking with them.
