Security services

The University's Security Service operates 24 hours a day, every day of the year. We offer crime prevention advice, patrol the campus, investigate crimes and respond to alarms and emergencies.

SafeZone is an app that everyone on campus can use to ask for help. It is there to give you extra peace of mind in addition to the other support offered by the University. It is linked to the University’s Security team who are on call to help you 24/7.

We offer a range of security services to include:

  • uniformed security patrols and static guarding both with and without the use of dogs
  • plain clothes security officers
  • a 24 hour monitoring service for all networked closed circuit television cameras and University alarm systems
  • initial response to alarms and emergency situations
  • investigating, recording and analysing crimes and incidents
  • crime prevention advice
  • event and venue security for University functions including access control and guarding
  • briefings to staff and students on personal and property security
  • lost and found property system
  • management information on crime figures and trends as they affect the University
