Emergencies
Call 999 for any life-threatening emergency
Calling 999 will connect you to all emergency services including ambulance, police and fire and rescue services. Explain your problem and the emergency services will work out what kind of help is best.
If you're in your hall, contact reception after you call 999 so that staff can grant access and meet emergency services on arrival.
Non-emergency help
First Aid
We do not provide first aid products to residents. We recommend you bring your own first aid kit with you to halls.
Let the Residence team know about any accident or injury in your hall immediately.
Call 111 for non-emergency medical help
Call 111 when you need medical advice or treatment that is not an emergency. You will speak to trained advisers who are supported by nurses and paramedics.
