Hi everyone!

This page is currently under construction as we are in the proccess of adding new things, but please don't hesitate to contact us if you have any queries.

Safety Tips for Women

For those of you who are concerned about general safety issues or walking around campus at night here are a few tips:

1) If you are in an emergency, dial 999 and it will send you directly
to campus security.

2) There is a women's bus service (66X) which operates Monday to Friday during term time only. Fares are 85p unless you have a Unirider pass or regular return ticket. The bus will take you wherever you need to go, so as to ensure that you are not left walking alone at night.

Underpass service: runs every half hour, on the hour from 17:30 - 23:30.

Southwest campus service: runs every hour from 17:35 - 23:35.

3) LUSU provides attack alarms for £1 each
