Community Guidance

As a close-knit community we ask our members to follow our community guidance:

  • Wash your hands more often than usual, for 20 seconds using soap and hot water, particularly after coughing, sneezing and blowing your nose. Our toilets are cleaned daily.
  • To reduce the spread of germs when you cough or sneeze, cover your mouth and nose with a tissue, or your sleeve (not your hands) if you don’t have a tissue, and throw the tissue away immediately. Then wash your hands or use a hand sanitising gel.
  • We ask that members keep your door handles clean. Surface wipes have been distributed to staff members. 
  • Do think about whether you still want to shake hands, and keep a sensible distance from one another.
  • If you are a Common Room member, do think about whether you need to come into the College.
