Microsoft outage

Friday 13 November 2026


We are aware of the Microsoft outage affecting organisations worldwide.

Microsoft is trying to restore its service but we do not know how long this will take.

Access to Outlook and other Microsoft platforms are affected, which means we are not able to send or receive emails.

Our services are operating as usual, and procedures are going ahead as planned. Please attend as scheduled and follow the instructions you’ve already received.

Thank you for your patience. We will continue to monitor updates from Microsoft.
