displayed in the entrance hall of the CLR. You are responsible for ensuring that people using the hall are aware of these arrangements and that the alternative exit door is operable.
- Parking outside the CLR is difficult because of the hill and the bend in the road. You are asked to place warning cones to guide people to park in safer places. Cones are available for your use

please take it home with you. All glass should be taken away as there is no glass recycling facility.
