Mansell Appointed By UPP For £24m Student Accommodation Project

University Partnerships Programme (UPP), the leading provider of campus infrastructure, student accommodation and residential management services, has appointed Mansell for a £24 million project to construct four-storey student accommodation blocks at Keynes College, University of Kent in Canterbury.

The on-campus development, provided through a long-term partnership between UPP and the University of Kent will comprise 495 new build student rooms adjacent to the existing Keynes College.

The majority of rooms will be ensuite, constructed in eight room clusters, 45 rooms will be created in five townhouses and five purpose built one-bedroom flats will also be constructed. A separate facilities management hub will complement the accommodation.

The project is designed to achieve a BREEAM "Excellent" rating; to achieve this responsibly resourced concrete and recycled materials will be used where possible.

The scheme incorporates innovative environmental measures, and is based upon UPP's award winning Eco Residence model of sustainable development.

This is the third project UPP has awarded to Mansell and follows the successful completion of Woolf College in December 2008.

Work has started on site and will be completed in September 2011.
