Funding for festive celebrations

13 Oct 2023

Message from People and Organisational Development (P&OD)

Dear colleagues 

With winter just around the corner, teams across the University will be starting to plan festive celebrations.   

I’d like to remind colleagues that the University contributes £20 per person for seasonal events to thank colleagues for their hard work and contribution. Each School/Faculty/Directorate/Department will be responsible for making their own arrangements and for funding from local budgets.  

For more information on funding for festive celebrations, please refer to the Non-Business Employee Entertaining Policy.  

Whether colleagues celebrate Christmas or not, the end of year provides us all with a great opportunity to catch-up with colleagues and reflect on all the amazing things we’ve achieved throughout the year.  

Best wishes

Adèle MacKinlay 

Director of People & Organisational Development
