We have a really safe campus but it’s important that you feel safe and secure all the time. To ensure our campus remains a safe place to study, work and socialise we have a dedicated security team, who work out of the Security Hub in the Harold Wilson Building, Main Entrance.

The Security Hub is open and staffed 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, monitoring CCTV and to provide security advice and assistance. This includes when you are out and about in town in the evening – if you feel unsafe in any way just go the Security Hub and the Security staff will help and advise, including calling a taxi to help you get home.

The Security Hub telephone number: 01484 472220 (internal university phones extension 2220)

The Security Hub is also the place to:

• Report lost or found property - to collect lost property or to arrange a viewing of items, please telephone: 01484 47221 or email: Lost.Property@hud.ac.uk. – photo ID will be required.
• Report lost Student ID card – Security will immediately cancel access on the card, replacements will have to be authorised by your School and are issued at Library Reception.
• Report lights out on Campus – Security will let the campus maintenance team know.
• Report any other safety or security concerns you have – Security will take immediate action when they can and will ensure concerns are reported to the appropriate managers within the University. Click here to find out more about the Incident Report Form
