Tour of the Jo Cox More in Common Building at the University of Huddersfield
University of Huddersfield, Queensgate, Huddersfield, West Yorkshire, HD1 3DH
Come and join us for a special guided tour of the University's first WELL Building Standard certified building on campus.
Inspired by the Jo Cox Foundation and the More in Common philosophy, this new building provides space for Students and Staff to facilitate and participate in significant conversations, education and programmes that celebrate Jo’s famous words “We are far more united and have far more in common than that which divides us.”
The building is one of only a handful of buildings in the UK to be awarded the Platinum WELL Building Standard, which centres around human health and wellness and features many sustainable architectural elements.
The standard consists of 10 concepts – air, water, nourishment, light, movement, thermal comfort, sound, materials, mind and community. The concepts have been integrated into the design and operation of the building to optimise the health of the building’s occupants and help them thrive.
