Animations & Interaction

The Leeds Beckett University website occasionally uses animations to page elements and animated gifs to add impact to pages. If you wish to stop them from playing for accessibility purposes or for personal preference then please see the guidance below. Please note that browsers sometimes change how they operate, so please refer to your browser help files to find their latest information.
How do I turn off animations?

Car Parking

For some journeys, travelling by car is the only option. You can still reduce your fuel consumption, costs and emissions by car sharing, greener driving techniques or by using car clubs.

Our campus car parks are administered by our car park co-ordinator. Resident permits are dealt with by the Accommodation team and our Disability Advice team deal with accessibility requests.

There is limited fee-based student parking at both the City Campus and Headingley Campus – details of this are below. Students with accessibility needs may be eligible for free parking or a parking permit. There are limited parking permits available at Headingley Campus for students.
