Please note:
- All staff arranging meetings should make it clear that attendees are encouraged to use public transport and that the provision of a visitor's parking permit is an exception rather than a rule. This is in line with the University's parking regulations.
- When you are using the meeting room, the fire exits must remain clear and unblocked at all times. If you have external visitors, they must be informed of the appropriate emergency procedures. If an external company would like to use the meeting rooms for a meeting connected with the COI, please make sure that this is arranged via the Professional Services Support Team so they are aware of any parking implications, and that all Health and Safety requirements are met.
- If you have ordered catering for your meeting, please mention this at the time of booking the room, so the layout can be arranged accordingly. Please contact the COI Reception if you would like them to arrange catering for you, this must be done at least 5 working days in advance of the meeting.
- When requesting any changes to the layout of your booked meeting room, you must add 15 minutes to each end of the booking to allow for setting up and closing down of the rooms. Please be aware there are no building facilities staff on site before 8:30 am or after 6:00 pm to make layout changes.
