About

After a successful bid, we were awarded a capital grant of £5.8 million from the Office for Students to develop part of our site into a new hub for our health and wellbeing teaching, learning, and community clinic spaces. The Hub will open in September 2025.

What community clinics will be there?

We operate a number of public clinics where students can put their learning to practice under the guidance of highly qualified practitioners, while also providing essential health and wellbeing care for our Plymouth community.

Clinics in the new Marjon Health & Wellbeing Hub will be:

  • Speech & Language Therapy
  • Physiotherapy
  • Osteopathy
  • Psychotherapy & Counselling

These clinics are already in operation across our site, but will move to the refurbished building over the summer, ready for community access and student learning in the autumn.

Which courses will be taught in the Hub?

Many of our health and wellbeing courses will move from various locations across campus to the new building, helping to bring both learning and practice under one roof. This will help our students and staff to work more collaboratively to enhance learning and extend opportunities.

Courses being taught from the new space will be:

  • BSc (Hons) Pre-registration Nursing
  • Higher Level Apprenticeship Assistant Practitioner
  • Foundation Degree (FdSc) Nursing Associate
  • Higher Level Apprenticeship Nursing Associate
  • BSc (Hons) Osteopathic Theory (top-up)
  • M.Ost Osteopathic Medicine (Undergraduate Pre-registration Master's)
  • MPhysio Physiotherapy
  • BSc (Hons) Speech and Language Therapy
  • MPsy Psychotherapy and Counselling

Improving services to our community

Moving some of our clinic spaces means our patients can park right outside the new dedicated building, quickly navigate to our reception space, and attend appointments with ease. We're looking forward to helping patients in our new clinical spaces.

What's special about this Hub?

The Marjon Health & Wellbeing Hub isn't just another medical space. This dedicated building will be home to the latest technology, including specialist Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) rooms, which means that our students are learning in first-class facilities from experienced and highly knowledgeable lecturers and practitioners. We prepare our students to succeed so they can provide the best support for their current and future patients, and help their community for years to come.

The new Hub will also house an academic neighbourhood, so our staff can continue to collaborate and stay research active.

Did you know, 89% of Marjon's research is recognised internationally? (REF 2021)
