For those of you who did not manage to pick up your replacement cards at the end of last term, you will need to pop along to the Porters in the Hub upon arrival for your new card. You won’t be able to get into your room or kitchen without it.
Just to let you know from the 9th January 2012, there will be new rules
around parking at Badger Hill.
City of York Council will introduce a trial Traffic Regulation Order to
cover all of Field Lane service road, Low Mill Close, the section of Badger
Wood Walk accessible from Field Lane and Deramore Drive from its
junction with Field Lane to the junction of Yarburgh Way.
There will be double yellow lines on Deramore Drive- Yarburgh Way
junction Access through and across the junction of Deramore Drive and
Yarburgh Way.
There will be a single yellow line highlighting no parking on both sides of
the road from 8am till 6pm Mon to Fri between Deramore Drive’s
Yarburgh Way and Field Lane junctions.
Low Mill Close, Field Lane & Badger Wood Walk will be Resident permit
holder parking. A timed resident permit holder only parking scheme will
be implemented within the three streets outlined above. This means that
from 8am till 6pm Monday to Friday any vehicle not correctly displaying
the appropriate permit will receive a penalty charge notice and potential
further enforcement action.
A Civil Enforcement Officer will allow a 5 minute observation period for a
vehicle not displaying a permit. If no loading activity is witnessed during
this time, a penalty charge notice will be issued.
We would hate for anyone to get caught out so please bear this in mind.

There are now FREE postal chlamydia tests available in the JCR! They are easy to use and free to post, you can even receive your results in a text.Chlamydia is the most common STI in people under 25, and can have various effects on your health and fertility. It often has no symptoms and is easily treated.
So please do help yourself to a test and post it off- the boxes will be replenished regularly, so if there aren’t any in the box, there should be a few days later.
Also, as there is more to sexual health than Chlamydia, there is also the Monkgate Clinic, who you can contact on 01904 721111, arrange an appointment through the Campus Health Centre on Wednesdays and Fridays 1-3pm.
