Covid-19 safety measures

All buildings have been assessed to ensure that suitable ventilation is available. Meeting rooms are equipped with air-quality control monitors to check on the CO2 levels and take action if required. For more information on the safety measurements adopted through the campus, see the Durham University Outbreak Response plan.

Participants attending in person will be required to wear face coverings inside University buildings, and take a Lateral Flow Test (LFT) within 48 hours of the start of the meeting. Members of Durham University can book a LFT test through Durham University here. Rapid tests can also be obtained through the NHS website.
