Our response to COVID-19
As an organisation, Uniting Communities is monitoring and responding to the current situation regarding COVID-19.
At U City, we are enacting a number of measures to reduce the risk of infection, whilst allowing the building to continue to operate wherever it is safe and appropriate to do so.
We are asking all tenants, residents and essential visitors to proactively help manage the spread of COVID-19 by:
- being particularly mindful of hand hygiene and using the hand sanitiser provided when entering and exiting the building
- closely following the guidelines for physical distancing
- limiting non-essential contact with others
- ensuring all visitors sign in and sign the public health disclosure at Concierge.
We thank you for your cooperation and patience during this rapidly changing time.
Please refer to this page for all the latest updates and information or visit Uniting Communities to read our organisational response.
