BBQs on Eastern Avenue

We have been advised by Campus Infrastucture Services (CIS) effective immediately there are to be no more BBQ’s on Eastern Avenue. CIS are working on new BBQ facilities which will be located on and around the campus that should meet the needs of staff and students. You can still have BBQ’s around Manning House and in designated areas around campus – please make sure you book the area (which can be done online!) If you are not sure please come into the C&S office and ask one of the friendly C&S staff.
