Serious incident at Unsworth Park last night

28 Nov 2020

Update on large gatherings

Following a serious incident at Unsworth Park last night, Students’ Union Exec members and student halls reps today met with the University and Greater Manchester Police. Together we have agreed:

  • Large gatherings are prohibited in lockdown 
  • Large gatherings present a significant risk to the safety of students from COVID-19 and overcrowding
  • If you are concerned about a large gathering in your Halls, call University Security on 0161 306 9966
  • University Security will work with Greater Manchester Police
  • The University will discipline students involved in large gatherings
  • The police may issue fixed penalty notices if students do not comply with the law.

Please look after each other by following the safety guidance and advice you’ve already received from the University by email.
