For the 3rd day of Go Green Week, we are asking students and staff to walk into campus.

One of the best things you can do for this planet is to cut down on your Carbon footprint and one of the best ways you can do this is by looking at your transport.

So, if you walk, cycle, car-share or bus into campus, come to the Percy Gee Building and you’ll get a FREE tea or coffee. Environment Team volunteers will be at the various entrances to campus to give you a voucher.
