Safety in our Venues

Monday 10 January 2022 11:55

Our venues have re-opened (yay!) but we've put some additional measures in place to keep everyone safe! 

We want you to have fun, socialise, and relax alongside your studies, but we want to make sure our spaces are as safe as possible. Below are the changes we are putting in place this January in our venues:

  •  All our venues will operate as table service only. Please order via the app
  • We ask that you to stay seated while you are inside – we will still have music and a fun atmosphere, but no dancing, for now!
  • Events and bookings will be limited to those that work with table service .
  • Activity bookings for Union Bar and Metric (or other spaces) will be limited to match the seated capacity of these spaces 
  • Beit Quad will have gazebos for shelter if you'd prefer to socialise outside – but do remember to wrap up warm! There will be blankets available to buy from our bars via the app, at cost price of £2.25. Due to the difficulty of washing blankets between uses we are unable to provide them on a temporary basis (but please bring them back next time to use again!). 
  • Our shops on Sherfield Walkway will be open, please wear a face covering when inside.
  • When you are moving around indoors of any Union (and College) spaces, including to go to the toilets, please do wear your face covering and use our hand sanitising stations. 

Please continue to be respectful and considerate of others in our spaces. As always if you are feeling unwell, including having symptoms that are like a common cold, please stay at home and take a test.
