Covid-19 Information for Students
We're excited for you to stay with us and we really hope you enjoy your time here on the seafront at Aberystwyth. However, it's also important to remember that Covid-19 is still a threat, and that we can all do our part to help everyone stay safe.
COVID-19 Guidance
-
Social distancing
The current guidance from Welsh Government is to keep your distance from other people who are not part of your household or extended household. You must stay 2 metres (3 steps) away from others when outdoors and in enclosed spaces outside the home setting (such as in shops).
-
Hygiene
Good hygiene is one of the key factors in helping to stop the spread of the virus. Please be sure to keep your rooms, ensuite bathrooms and communal areas clean and tidy. You should also wash your hands regularly.
We have provided hand sanitising stations at the entrances of the building and on each floor. Please make sure that you use these to keep yourself and your neighbours safe.
-
Local lockdowns
Please make sure that you keep track of the local news to find out if any local lockdowns come into force. If this does happen, you may not be able to leave the property for a period of time. With this in mind, you should familiarise yourself with the local shops and ensure that you are able to do food shopping online, if you need to.
What if I develop Symptoms?
Covid-19 symptoms are summarised as follows:
- A new continuous cough
