Shrewsbury's university campus could become Shropshire Council's new HQ, it has been confirmed.
University Centre Shrewsbury will be leaving the Guildhall in Frankwell, where it has been based since 2016.
“It means that we’re having to make difficult decisions that we never wanted to make. However, we do have a plan to ensure that we can continue to look after our most vulnerable residents. “The creation of a multi-agency hub in Shrewsbury town centre, as part of the exciting redevelopment of Smithfield Riverside, is still our future plan.
“Guildhall in Shrewsbury is currently occupied and used by University Centre Shrewsbury and has been since 2016," she said. “We are speaking with them about alternative accommodation plans and we will help them to review their options to support teaching and learning within the town.”
