Ensuring your safety on campus

• We strongly encourage all colleagues to download SafeZone.

SafeZone is an app designed to speed up potential response times from Campus Support & Security when you need urgent help, first aid assistance, or wellbeing support. In the event of an emergency, we can also keep you updated via text messages should you need to be aware of any vital information. 

We are part of the Manchester SafeZone Alliance, meaning you can use across our campus, as well as the Manchester Metropolitan University and the University of Salford campuses. 

Lone working

We have a comprehensive Lone Working Policy to ensure your safety when working alone on campus, as well as to help you feel confident and secure in such cases.  

If you plan to work alone in a university building or similar environment, in a community or research setting make sure you take time to read this document so that you’re aware of your responsibilities. Key aspects of this policy include risk assessments, managing and mitigating risks, and routine precautions that you can take. 

Report and support 

If you have a safeguarding concern or experience or witness harassment, bullying, or any form of discrimination, you can report it anonymously through our support system or speak directly to a trained advisor.Our team is committed to addressing all concerns promptly and effectively.
