ONE ELMWOOD
Student Centre and Students’ Union
There’s a buzz happening around campus…and the focus is all on One Elmwood, our new Student Centre and Students’ Union which houses both the Students’ Union and University Services in one purpose-built facility.
Set right at the heart of campus and with a rooftop terrace overlooking the area, the brand new state-of-the-art building brings together student services with a range of facilities so students can access services, collaborate in shared spaces, get support and advice, and socialise in first class venues.
This vibrant new hub builds on existing services, shared spaces and support across campus and online which means students can get the support they need, when they need it.
It provides a whole new exciting space to catch up with friends, study in a tech-friendly space, grab lunch from the SU Shop, enjoy a pint in the Union Bar, or take in a gig in the brand new Mandela Hall.

It is important that the new building is sustainable, accessible and meets the needs of our students and staff.
One Elmwood is designed to be more efficient and substantially cheaper to run, operate and maintain, and moves have also been made to switch systems and equipment away from those that rely on fossil fuels to more sustainable electric solutions, reflecting the most up to date sustainability know-how, to provide a net zero ready building that is future proofed for generations to come.
The building will also be equipped with cycle storage areas and showers for staff, Gender Neutral Toilets, Accessible Toilets, Baby Changing Facilities, Parenting Rooms, a Changing Places Room and two Quiet Rooms for Prayer/Reflection.
