Security

The University Security Service

This service operates 24-hours a day, every day of the year. They offer crime prevention advice, patrol the campus, investigate crimes, and respond to alarms and emergencies. Contact them for information, advice or to report a crime at:

Security Control Room, 183 Woodhouse Lane (near the University entrance barrier)
Tel: (0113) 343 5494 (non-emergencies)

Students and staff are reminded of the University's "Stay Safe Stay Secure" booklet which gives advice on personal safety.
