Changes to Dumfries Campus Entrance

We’re now in the final stage of our heating project, and some work is needed at the main entrance. From Friday 27th March, the main entrance will be closed while our contractor, OCS, carries out improvements to help keep the building warmer and more secure.

During this time, you’ll need to use a different way into the building:

  • Enter via the Henry Duncan building
  • Walk through the campus library
  • Follow the clearly marked signs

Reception will also move to the Henry Duncan reception desk while the work is ongoing.
The college bus services are now back to the main campus bus stop on campus.

The temporary route is fully accessible, but if you have any concerns, please let us know.

Meningitis: Know the Signs. ACT FAST

Recent reports of a meningitis outbreak in Kent are a reminder of how serious this illness can be.

There is currently no evidence of increased risk in Scotland, but meningitis can affect teenagers and young adults, so it is important to know the symptoms and make sure you are up to date with your vaccinations.
