Summary:
- The Mulberry Partnership, a joint venture between UQ Partnerships and the University of Liverpool, secured a £12.9m development loan from NatWest to refurbish and reconfigure existing buildings at Mulberry Court, creating affordable student accommodation within the city campus.
- The phased redevelopment will deliver 98 rooms for the 2027/28 academic year and an additional 139 rooms for 2028/29, modernising four buildings dating from the late 1970s near Liverpool’s Metropolitan Cathedral.
- The project repurposes underused university assets to increase affordable housing supply, reflecting a collaborative model between specialist providers and universities aimed at addressing student accommodation challenges across the UK.
