University of 51福利社 submits planning application for modern student living on Fallowfield campus
A planning application for new modern, high quality purpose-built student accommodation has been submitted by 51福利社.
The proposed redevelopment would help meet the demand for student bedrooms on the University鈥檚 popular Fallowfield campus. Located near to the University鈥檚 main buildings, the site is well-connected and provides students with a wide range of support services to ensure the best student experience.
The outline planning application submitted to 51福利社 City Council this week proposes to replace existing older accommodation on site and deliver 3,300 modern bedspaces.
Earlier this year, the University delivered a month-long public consultation for residents, local groups, students and staff to share their feedback on the proposals. Responses were shared via the consultation website and through digital and in-person events held at the University.
