Staff and students are invited to observe a one-minute silence at 12 midday on Tuesday 23 March to remember those who have died. This will be followed by a national vigil later that evening with households encouraged to light up their doorsteps.

Along with prominent buildings and landmarks across the UK, the University's Trent Building will be lit up with blue floodlights.

To mark the anniversary, the university's Media Relations team will be briefing local and national media on the range of experts available to speak on the future impact of Covid-19, covering topics including vaccine development and deployment; the long-term impact of lockdown on children and how we would potentially better prepare for pandemics in the future.
