Help us keep case numbers low
We will continue to monitor data provided by local public health teams and the WHO to make sure we can react to any Covid-19 changes.

Getting tested and reporting cases
The government is no longer providing free lateral flow device (LFD) tests. Tests are available from pharmacies including the on-campus pharmacy.
If you have symptoms, we recommend staying at home for five days. You can use our reporting form to let us know so we can keep track of cases on campus.
Cold or flu symptoms
If you’re not feeling well, respect the community and avoid spreading illnesses.
