Student Accommodation Services
Notice Description
In response to the recent change in guidance regarding the structural integrity of Reinforced Autoclaved Aerated Concrete (RAAC), as provided by Government and the Department for Education (DFE), the University of East Anglia (UEA) has taken appropriate measures by closing all effected campus accommodation buildings, to ensure student safety and welfare.
