The Faccenda Centre, opened in 2011, is located at the heart of the campus; the building is designed to be a hub for students with essential services such as the Students' Union, Careers Service and Graze Café under one roof.

The building has a great deal of social space, with a large open plan foyer on the ground floor and open access computers to allow students to work and socialise in the same space.
