Found items
If you find an item, please take it to the Palmer Building Reception desk.
We will log the item in our database and try to return it to its owner.
When the Palmer Building Reception is closed, please take any items to the Security Office in Whiteknights House.
Lost property will be held for four weeks (1 week for items found at the Sports park). Where an item has identifying marks we will attempt to find the owner. After this time, unclaimed items are sent to charity, recycled or disposed of (if they can't be re-used).
Lost Campus Cards
Lost Campus Cards are handed to the Security Office at Whiteknights House.
The Security Office is open 24hrs a day, which gives students and staff the ability to collect their card at a more convenient time. After two weeks, any Campus Cards not collected will be destroyed.
