There is also an IT Services Helpdesk located in G82 at Keppel Street or by telephone on 020 7927 2186. Opening hours are 08:30 - 17:30 from Monday to Friday. If you are locked out of your account or unable to login to set up your account, you can contact us by email at servicedesk@lshtm.ac.uk.

The forms you complete via ServiceDesk capture everything the support teams need to know to resolve your query and they go straight to the team responsible, though we are still contactable via phone for urgent requests.
We recommend that you include your student number whenever contacting us.
