We held a public consultation on the detailed designs for the proposals between Monday 2 September and Sunday 22 September 2024.

Thank you to everybody who attended our open day and evening events and provided feedback on the proposals.

As part of the university and project team’s commitment to engagement and two-way conversations with the community, we have provided a summary below of how we have responded to and considered feedback received during the public consultation held in September 2024.

What Happens Next?

Following our public consultation in September 2024, the project team has considered and responded to feedback received and submitted a planning application to the Royal Borough of Greenwich (RBG). RBG undertook their own consultation on the proposals, which were available to view and comment on via the RBG planning portal. The reference numbers for the planning permission and listed building consent applications are as follows:

24/3426/F – Planning application

24/3427/L – Listed building consent application

On 11 March 2025, the RBG Planning Board voted to approve our planning applications, and the university is now agreeing a Section 106 agreement with RBG. This website will shortly be updated with next steps and news on the project as we enter the next stages.
