Support and Report has been established to provide a centralised point of contact for all our students and staff to share their concerns about any offensive, threatening or anti-social behaviour, on or off campus. This mechanism enables confidential and anonymous reporting of incidents to specific senior members of staff who will initiate referral to relevant teams and offer appropriate support, ensuring any follow-up is carried out as necessary.
If you have witnessed any incidents of bullying, harassment and assault or been a victim of them, then we are here to support you. It is really important that you report any such incidents to us.
The University offers specialist support for you and for anyone you know who may have been affected. As well as offering support, our advisors have been trained to offer support for victims with reporting an incident or crime to police and other relevant external agencies.
You can tell us what happened using the 'Report a concern' form
If an incident has just happened try and find somewhere you feel safe. If this isn’t possible and you are scared or fearful you can call the security team on 0800 389 8455, or if you are on campus visit any reception or the Student Information Desk.
Where it is considered that there is an immediate danger to the personal safety of any person this should be reported immediately to the police on 999.
You can let us know about the incident or concern in one of two ways, either anonymously or by leaving your contact details. You will be asked for your choice when you begin to complete the form
