Public invited to shape the future of university’s Lampeter campus
The University of Wales Trinity Saint David (UWTSD) is inviting proposals for the viable, sustainable activity on the University’s Lampeter campus.
An online form is now available, providing an opportunity for individuals and organisations to propose their ideas that will bring long-term, sustainable, economic benefit to the campus and the local community.
Over the past few months, the University has been actively engaging with stakeholders and community members to explore a range of economically viable, education-related activities that could bring a new, sustainable lease of life to the campus. A public meeting held last month attracted strong local interest and valuable feedback, marking an important step in the consultation process.
In addition to the public meeting, the University has been engaging with representatives of key stakeholder groups and will continue this to do so to identify practical and innovative proposals. A Key Stakeholder Group, comprising local politicians, business and community leaders, and University-associated groups, is set to meet at the end of this month.
This group will work together to generate and assess viable proposals aimed at reimagining the vibrancy of the campus, pursuing alternative educational and commercial activities, and creating new opportunities for the local community. Members of the group are representatives for the key communities and we encourage people to make contact with them to represent views and thoughts. Their proposals will be submitted to the University for approval.
Debra Williams, Pro Vice-Chancellor, Business and Commercial Relations said:
“We strongly encourage everyone with an interest in the future of the Lampeter campus and who have a worked-through proposal to take part in this process. The recent public meeting and ongoing discussions with key stakeholders have reinforced the importance of working together to develop a sustainable and exciting future for the campus. This process is a vital opportunity for the wider community to contribute their proposals and help shape what comes next.”

The University welcomes all contributions and looks forward to engaging with the community on this important initiative.
