Lost and found property
Found a lost item?
If you find a lost item, hand it in to the DMU Security Team at the Estates Services Building, located opposite the Campus Centre and Gateway House. If you can, let us know the date, time and location the item was found.
Our team will then log the item and attempt to find its owner. Any sensitive items that could be misused (such as bank cards) will be stored securely until they can be returned to their owners.
Please do not hand lost property to reception desks, faculty offices or any other point of contact; wherever possible, lost property should always be handed in to DMU Security to ensure the secure storage and return of the item.
Lost property
Each month, the DMU Security Team receives large amounts of lost property, which are booked in and stored to await collection. However, many of these items are never claimed by their owners, and are eventually destroyed.
If you lose an item on campus, please contact the team and give a description of the item - we will then check our lost property storage for items matching that description. If we've got your item, we'll let you know how to collect it.
