Staff and students may use this form to apply for a replacement ID card if yours has been lost, stolen, or has expired.
ID cards will only be deemed to be stolen on presentation of a valid police crime reference number or other proof of theft.
Stolen ID cards will be re-issued free of charge if a crime reference number is presented.

We will also replace your ID card without charge if it is faulty or has become damaged or unreadable through normal wear and tear. You will need to bring the damaged card with you when you collect your replacement or the normal £10.00 charge will apply.

Royal Literary Fund (RLF) Scholars - Writing Support
As part of the Royal Literary Fund’s Fellowship Scheme, the Library hosts two professional writers who offer one-to-one tutorials during term-time for any member of the university who wishes to improve their writing.
The RLF Fellows can help with any aspect of the writing process, including planning, drafting, constructing an argument and editing. They are able to comment on the writing style of work in progress, allowing students to improve their work before submission.
To book an appointment, please email either Nikki or Alison:
Monday or Tuesday appointments: nikki.sheehan@rlfeducation.org.uk
Wednesday or Thursday appointments: alison.macleod@rlfeducation.org.uk
If English is not your first language, specialist one-to-one tutorials are available from English Language for Academic Study.
Students may see the Fellow just once, or return for a subsequent tutorial if they want, subject to availability. In order to ensure other students can book appointments when they need them, please do not book to see more than one RLF Fellow. Appointments can be booked up to 28 days in advance.
The RLF Fellows are established professional writers of literary merit, representing a wide range of genres, including biography, scientific writing and fiction. The principal aim of the Fellows' work is to foster good writing practice across all disciplines and media. Students at every level of study can benefit from learning about good writing practice from a professional author.
RLF Writing resources are also available to students online.
Please note this service is not available during vacation.
