DGHE November Newsletter

Dear Learners,

You have probably already heard about the Prime Minister's announcement. Here at DGHE, we want you to feel safe and well during these challenging times!

The government has announced a pre-Christmas lockdown in England starting on Thursday 5 November. The aim is to bring COVID-19 case numbers down using a month of increased restrictions, allowing people to travel more safely for the Christmas break.

The new restrictions do not apply to the educational activities of schools, colleges and universities and we anticipate that our blended approach will continue.

Please take care of yourselves and know that we are always here to support you.

Togetherall a 24/7 online safe and anonymous community supporting our mental health is available for you.

You can always book appointments via VLE with Fiona Nouri, our Advice and Wellbeing Officer.

STUDENTS CORNER

LIBRARY OPENING DAYS

As we are always trying to keep our students and staff safe we have changed the Library opening days.

From Monday the 9th of November, the Library will be open for students to borrow books and use the computers on Mondays and on Fridays only. The library will be closed on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays. You can still return books using the Book Return Box on the first floor of DGHE.

Our Librarian Mark Pester will continue to offer his support through Zoom and further develop learning resources here at DGHE to ensure you can access the learning resources you need.

Please stay safe and we are always here to help and support you!
