This includes procuring major new development projects, day to day management of the university’s estate, provision of building and grounds maintenance and an extensive range of other essential services.

Wildlife numbers skyrocket in Chernobyl - It seems that man is more deadly to wildlife than a nuclear disaster according to new research that has found animal populations in the Chernobyl exclusion zone soaring 30 years after the world’s worst nuclear accident. Many native wildlife species have found refuge in the human-free zone in Ukraine. Scientists have learned that the number of moose, wolves, bear, red deer and wild boar living in the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone — and even rarer species like the European lynx - have returned to the area and are breeding successfully…

SILS wins top award...

A design initiative optimising the university's 'void spaces' won a top national award. The reconfigured Watts space has had a notable impact on the building's social environment and this flagship space at the Moulsecoomb campus collected the inaugural Association of University Directors of Estates’ Impact Award at a gala evening held at Stirling Castle in Scotland.

Conceived by graduates from Interior Architecture, Carly West and Tom Munson, and built on a close partnership with the university’s Estate and Facilities Management Department and Professor Anne Boddington, former CETLD Director, the overarching SILS project has sought to analyse and re-purpose spaces across the university’s five campuses.

Below - Canada lynx now have nearly 25 million acres of protected ‘critical habitat’ across six US states: Idaho, Maine, Minnesota, Montana, Washington and Wyoming. Their population dropped dramatically in the past because of trapping, which remains a key threat, along with habitat loss and degradation. Adapted for hunting in deep snow, lynx have thick cushions of hair on the soles of their feet that act like built-in snowshoes. The decision is the culmination of years of work to protect these beautiful cats.
