Our Community
SCR - Senior Common Room
SCR is the Senior Common Room. All staff members of the University are allocated to a college and hence are members of the Senior Common Room. When we refer to Fylde SCR however we are usually referring to the team of senior members who help to run the college.
Casey Cross - Acting Principal
The Principal is the senior member of the College who is responsible to the Council and the Senate of the University for the College finances and for maintaining the effective working and good order of the College.
Adam Trepak - College Manager
Adam is your first port of call for all queries or problems. Drop into the college office for everything from scholarship information, memorabilia, college advisor information, booking of the common room and group study room, Lancaster Award information… or just a chat.
Kirsty Thornton - College Senior Advisor
The Senior Advisor is responsible for the welfare and support of Fylde students and manages the College’s Advisory Team (CAT).

SCR teams
College Community Assistants
The Dean is supported in their work by three College Community Assistants (CCAs). For the year 2024/25 these are Charlotte, Seana and Mo. The CCAs are postgraduate students who assist the Dean with disciplinary matters and they can also signpost you if you require welfare support. You can contact them to discuss any issues that may be concerning you by emailing fyldedean@lancaster.ac.uk.
College Porters
College Porters are available 24 hours a day for the majority of the year and are responsible for mail, room keys, and general security in and around the college. You can always ask the porters if you need help or information or if you have any sort of problems day or night.
JCR - Junior Common Room
Each college has a JCR (except Graduate College which has a Postgrad Board). This is the Junior Common Room and it basically means each and every member of the college, ultimately YOU! The JCR is represented by the JCR Exec who are an elected body of students who organise events and look after the welfare of its students.
Here at Fylde, the student voice is of the highest importance. That is why the JCR Exec will represent the college in the best way they can at all times!
