Easter closure and support
31 Mar 2021
A reminder that in recognition of the efforts being made by all our staff, there will be two extra days holiday around the Easter break on Thursday, 1 April and Tuesday, 6 April
These two extra days will be in addition to your annual leave entitlement. While many staff are able and encouraged to take a well-earned break over the Easter period, we thank colleagues who will be working to keep vital services open and our campus secure.
