First Aid

The Health and Safety (First Aid) Regulations 1981 place a duty on the University to make first aid provision for staff and visitors in case of injury or illness in the workplace.

First aiders are appointed for buildings with consideration to factors such as occupancy levels, and the type of activity within each Department.

For details regarding your local first aider click here. Details are also displayed on notices throughout buildings or via the University Switch board 2222.

For queries and information regarding the provision of first aiders, training and risk assessments contact the Senior Occupational Health Advisor, Lesley Greenfield.

For admin queries, new candidate nomination forms and supplies please contact the Occupational Health Administrator Zoe Burt.

First aid rooms are available at the following locations:
