Supporting the NHS, health and social care
We’re supporting the NHS and other key health organisations as they work tirelessly to tackle Covid-19.
The NHS faces one of its toughest challenges in its history. It is inspiring to see what has been achieved so far. Much credit needs to go to many individuals across the University who have been proactive and put in a huge amount of their time and effort.

Providing resources
We're finding ways to supply the NHS with vital apparatus and personal protective equipment (PPE).
Giving time
From providing food to volunteering on hospital wards, people all over the University are coming together to support frontline NHS.
