During these challenging times, Royal Holloway University of London has taken the decision to close to members of the general public, and visitors should not be invited onto campus by staff or students for the forseeable future.
However, there are occassions within the student curriculum where it is vital for specialist visitors to guest lecture, teach or lead workshops, and provide expert tuition to our students. We strongly encourage, where possible, that if a visiting specialist is required to lead a workshop or lecture as part of an academic module, that this session is done using digital technology. College protocol regarding our Flexible Teaching Model must be conveyed by the engager to the invited specialist visitor.
In the rare case that it is imperative that a visiting specialist needs to lead their session on-campus, please ensure that this is communicated with the Head of Department and Performance Manager and the engager reads and understands our risk assessment outlined below. In some cases, this may have to be authorised by the College's Health & Safety Officer.
Usual visitor protocols are still in place (financial regulations, payment protocols, car parking, etc.). Please contact the Concert Office if you intend on engaging a specialist visitor for a music performance activity/session/lecture, or the School of Performing & Digital Arts Office for academic visitors.
