The Student Living Strategy sets out plans to increase the choice and quality of student housing, maximise the benefits of a large student population, and better tackle any associated challenges for communities in Nottingham.

This marks the first time that Nottingham City Council, the University of Nottingham, and Nottingham Trent University have made a formal commitment to work proactively together on shared priorities for housing and local services.

The Student Living Strategy sets out three main priorities:

• Improving the quality, safety, affordability and location of student accommodation, and encouraging a better balance of student housing choice across the city.
• Encouraging neighbourliness, where students contribute to creating a clean, attractive and sustainable environment, and tackling the impact of waste and noise.
• Increasing community cohesion, ensuring students are valued members of their communities and improving graduate retention in the city.

We know that students have an immensely positive impact on the city of Nottingham and it’s as much your city as it is anyone else’s. That’s why we want to get the strategy right and ensure that it works for everyone – including you. Please take 10 minutes to read the consultation and provide your feedback:
