What to do...

On hearing the fire alarm- The alarm sounds continually- Leave the building by the nearest available exit- Signs for Fire Exit can be recognised by white letters on a green background- Assemble at the Assembly Area as directed: if in doubt go to the car park closest

to Main Reception- Do not return to the building until advised it is safe to do so- Visitors are asked to ensure that parked vehicles do not cause an obstruction should

emergency vehicles require access on to campus

In case of personal injury or illness- Go to the nearest Helpdesk (all buildings have one) or Registration area- Helpdesk staff will be able to arrange first aid assistance and can call for an

ambulance if required- Report any injury to members of staff at Helpdesks, or the Registration area

If property is lost or mislaid- Report details to staff in the Registration area
