Due to Maintenance we have buildings out of use this year , and so guests will need to vacate their rooms by 10am promptly on Sunday 6th September, BWR will be available to store luggage.

We hope you have received our recent Somerville Fund Spring mailing, including the Vaughan architectural pop-out! This fund sits at the heart of our efforts to support every student, and if you would like to contribute, you can do so here.

If you would like to come to the Gaudy but need help with the booking costs, you are welcome to apply to the Senior Members Fund for financial assistance (applications to Jackie Watson jackie.watson@some.ox.ac.uk)
