I have fieldwork/a placement scheduled to start soon - can I still go?

If the fieldwork/placement does not require travel outside of Manchester, or if government advice permits non-essential travel to your intended destination, then it may be possible to proceed. In all cases you should follow current government travel advice and complete the risk assessment and approval process.  If you have any questions regarding fieldwork/placements please contact your supervisor or local PGR support team.
