Campus Reimagined
Eating Areas
Works began: August 2025
Works completed: 2026
Brief
Creating more eating areas is one of the six ‘mini projects’ that were chosen by students and staff in a public vote in June 2025.
The vote followed hundreds of suggestions received through the Campus Reimagined Live event in February of the same year.
Over 3500 people voted and the winning projects all centre around spaces to meet, eat and relax.

This was one of the most popular ideas, as revealed in the results of ‘Vote or Veto’ campaign. Feedback shows that campus users want more areas where they can heat up food and relax while they eat.
A site on the Red Route is currently being transformed into a vibrant learning and social space with kitchen facilities. This will provide students with a welcoming and comfortable environment in which to collaborate, study and reflect.
The working group have proposed that all the spaces in the project should be in accessible locations and available to everyone. This could include putting microwaves in the Refectory and in some cafes on campus.
Project timeline
The works began in August 2025 and are due for completion in 2026.
