If you are visiting campus (does not include booked clearing tour or open day), please make sure that you have an appointment with a member of staff before you arrive on campus, and that they have completed a Visitor Register Form.
Please come to the reception desk to meet your host, unless your host has made arrangements to welcome you at a different location on-site. The online campus maps may be useful if navigating the campuses for the first time.
Your host will advise you of any additional local guidance, and normal health and safety guidance including emergency arrangements.
Travel to Campus
Our campuses are across Kent, but are easy to travel to by train, bus or car, and easy information including campus maps.
We recommend visitors use sustainable modes of transport, where possible, including bus or train. Please be aware that, as city-centre Campuses, we have limited car parking. We have a very small number of visitor spaces, and your host can request one.
If none are available please use public car parks or public transport options –

Visitor Registration, guidance for hosts
Christ Church staff hosting any visitors on campus must complete the Visitor Register Form.
For any visit to campus to go ahead, visitors must:
- be booked in advance using the Visitor Register Form. It is essential all visitors are logged this way, as paper sign in books are no longer used at receptions
- be covered by existing or new risk assessments
- hosting staff must have discussed any additional mitigations required to keep them safe.
Your host will advise you of any additional local guidance, and normal health and safety guidance including emergency arrangements. Please be aware we have a smoke free environment policy. Smoking and vaping is only permitted in our marked designated smoking areas in a few locations on campus.
The University host must ensure:
- That they or a representative meet the visitor at the designated point, or access cannot go ahead.
- That the standard CCCU Health and Safety Emergency Information is explained to visitors, as well as any onsite guidance.
The University is committed to maintaining a safe and respectful environment for its community, including staff, students, contractors, and visitors. Abuse of any kind—including verbal abuse, harassment, or sexual misconduct—will not be tolerated under any circumstances. If a visitor experiences or witnesses such behaviour, please report it to your University contact as soon as possible.
