Supporting universities in a changing landscape
As part of our 2025 Annual Report and Accounts, we spoke with Simon Jones, our Group Higher Education Director. Simon explains how we're continuing to support universities to meet their accommodation needs in a changing landscape and how important these partnerships are to our long-term growth strategy.
Student accommodation a strategic lever for university growth
The student accommodation landscape is rapidly changing. Ahead of our gold sponsor session at the 2026 AHUA Spring Conference, Moray Notman, our University Partner Commercial Director, explores how universities can position accommodation as a strategic priority.
Why staying away at university still matters
Headlines question whether degrees are worth the debt, warn that AI will upend graduate careers, and point to the rising number of students commuting to campus to cut costs – all of which has intensified the debate about whether to go to university. While some of the pressures are real, a lot of what gets written about university doesn’t stack up when you look at the evidence.
