To secure your place please pay me and I’ll take your menu choices at the same time. The cost is £15.95 for two courses for £20.50 for three courses. It would be great if you could try and bring something like the right amount of money although I could try and offload some of my old £1 coins!

Departmental safety documentation storage
One of the recommendations from our University safety audit was to have a central store of all the risk and COSHH assessments etc. To this end early next week, all staff will receive an invitation to share a Box folder called Departmental safety files.
There are 4 folders within, Travel, Teaching, Research and Workshop & Technical. I have listed some sub folders with the divisions in the research space but if you want to create your own group or project file please do so.
Please upload your safety documentation into an appropriate file for reference and to ensure compliance with the University’s polices.

Location of current safety forms.
A recommendation from the recent safety audit of the Department was to ensure everybody knows where the current blank safety forms are located. They are found on the University safety web pages at http://www.lancaster.ac.uk/depts/safety/index.html . These can be found by looking under safety in any of the University A-Z indexes. All safety form templates can be found here, usually at the end of the individual guidance i.e. risk assessment, COSHH etc. The link on the Physics web site will be updated to reflect this.

Safety handbook on Dept. Web pages
As part of our safety legal obligations please can you read the safety handbook, which is on the Physics Dept. web pages. Then print off the front page, sign to say you have understood it and return signed form to Grainne Wilkinson’s pigeon hole. Thank you.
