Out of Hours Access

The Dyson Centre is open between 08:30 and 17:00 on weekdays, all year round. For access outside this period, please email Dr Richard Roebuck with an explanation of what you plan to do and why it can't be done in normal working hours. This would extend your access to 08:00-19:00 weekdays and at weekends.

Requests take a few days to approve, so please plan ahead.
