Using the key cabinet

Once you have been given access to the key cabinet (Deister), located between the Chaplaincy Office and Anglican Chaplain's Office, you can use your ID card to access the keys for your Society whenever you need them.

Remember:

  • Return key(s) as soon as you've finished with them (keys may be needed by another Society).
  • NEVER take keys out of the Chaplaincy building.
  • If you lose your ID card, each replacement will need reprogramming using the registration form.
