We hope you are staying safe and well and looking forward to a well-deserved break over Christmas.
For those of you who will be on campus over Christmas, we are working on a student microsite which feature a variety of online activities that you can get involved in. There will also be details of how to access NHS services over the holiday period. Look out for more information shortly on DMU’s social media channels and our student webpages.
We are also offering all students who are remaining in Leicester the chance to book a free complimentary Christmas meal on us.
On Friday 25 December, you can choose to book a two-course takeaway Christmas dinner. Vegetarian/vegan options will be also be available. All meals will be available to collect and takeaway from the Food Village on campus.
To make sure you claim your free meal, you must book with us as soon as possible. Booking is open from today (Tuesday 1 December) to Wednesday 9 December.
