Inclusive Spaces on Campus

Principles

The Estates Inclusive Environment Statement of Principles has been prepared to outline the requirements for the University to provide an estate of optimum size, location, quality, and condition.

The Estates team recognises a responsibility to ensure that the physical environment meets the needs and expectations of students, staff, tenants, contractors, and visitors and therefore inclusive environment principles are a core requirement. The Statement of Principles assist Estates with the delivery of capital development, refurbishment and minor works projects that will support the University in delivering its core objectives.
