    The main Nuffield College entrance has moved! From today (3 May), we will return to the architect’s original plan and you can access the College through our new accessible Porters’ Lodge at our Worcester Street gates. More info: nuffield.ox.ac.uk/news-events/ne…

    Nuffield Site Manager Gary sent us this picture from College. As he said, ‘Even the ducks are social distancing’. Gary currently spends some of his week as a #volunteer, delivering PPE to the #NHS around Oxford: thank you, Gary! #simplethings #volunteersagainstCOVID19
