Britain runs on modern universities. They train the workforce, drive innovation, support public services and create opportunities in every nation and region of the UK.

Lots of pictures and videos incoming on a very significant day for the @UniofStaffs - the opening of our new £100m Student Village and Hub. I just want to give a shout out to this bloke. I’m sure all Unis think their Chancellor is the best. I know ours is. He’s one of our own. 🤝

"[Universities] are a network of economic engines throughout the country... [They] should be at the heart of local partnerships that turn economic opportunity into courses, student workplace experience and good jobs for local people."
