Essentially, a new build framework, it will be used to deliver the University’s next five-year investment strategy and has been divided into four lots that will also cover demolition, refurbishment, decoration and landscaping.

The University has begun this process to accelerate the planned modernisation of its student accommodation, but at this stage no firm plans have been made.
In the meantime, the University continues to make ongoing investments in residences to update and modernise them.
Around £25m has been invested in refurbishments at Hulme Hall in the past five years. The University is also beginning a £20m programme of refurbishment work in Dalton Ellis and Oak House this summer.
