National security — update


May 30th, 2017

The national threat level has returned to severe.

It had been elevated to critical for a short time following the terror incident in Manchester on 22 May.

Although a severe level means that an attack is highly likely, Nottinghamshire Police have stressed that there is no intelligence to suggest a current threat in the region.

This week the force has said there will be a phased return to business as usual with a visible policing presence remaining.

They have asked the public remain vigilant and report anything that causes concern. They stress the need for us all to remain alert but not alarmed.

An information film (Run, Hide, Tell) that provides advice on how to stay safe in the unlikely event you are caught up in an incident can be found on the Safety Office pages.

Any member of the University affected by incidents in Manchester can access support via the Services for Students pages.
