Cleaning guide
The University has designed a useful Cleaning guide which offers useful cleaning tips and advice. This has been created to help you keep your accommodation and communal facilities to high standard of cleanliness in order to keep a pleasent living environment for all. The weekly Cleaning guide rota template is a highly recommended tool to use. Feel free to print off copies and use them to help plan for the week ahead. The Guide will always be available on our services and facilities page.
Heating in residences
The heating in University residences will be generally be switched on between the months of October and May (subject to extreme temperatures). The control of the heating system is to ensure that the University avoids energy wastage and to minimise emissions or carbon dioxide, a key global warming gas. It is also to keep to a minimum, rising energy prices, which are reflected in hall fees. A new Residence Heating Guide will always be available on our services and facilities page.

Building work near residences in the 2011/12 academic year
We are continuing to invest in our accommodation through our partnership with UPP. This means that construction work is taking place alongside the existing residences at Rowe House, St German's and Lafrowda and this will continue throughout the academic year starting in September 2011. Further information is available on the investing in the future pages.
