Just a note from Nexus that they have made some changes to improve security for nighttime events, which we fully support and shouldn't adversely affect us:
1. The main front doors will be closed shortly after events start, to prevent random members of the public hanging around smoking in the stairs/hallway or refusing to leave the premises. While it hasn't impacted games nights, Nexus sometimes have challenges with this (probably more on a weekend). As such, Nexus will experiment with having a staff member on the front door for the first 10-15 mins of an event & will then close up, leaving the cafe number on the door for any late arrivals to call down for entry. Staff will also occasionally go up and check that nobody has been left stuck outside.
2. When we leave, Nexus have asked if we can wait around until the staff have locked up so they don't get challenged at the front door when they leave - we do this already, so no change
I'm sure you understand and we will benefit from these added safety features.
