Flow Student is growing in Sheffield

Three new student communities are joining Flow, giving students even more choice across the city

We’ve got some big news from Sheffield.

Flow Student is welcoming three new student accommodation communities to the family: Archways, Leadmill Point and Westhill Hall.

Together, they add 1,163 new beds to our Sheffield portfolio and take Flow Student to almost 2,000 beds across six locations in the city.

They’ll join our existing Sheffield communities at Park Village, The Moor and Truro Works, giving students even more choice when it comes to finding somewhere to live that works around university life.

More choice in one of the UK’s biggest student cities

Sheffield is already one of Flow Student’s biggest locations, and it’s easy to see why.

Home to both the University of Sheffield and Sheffield Hallam University, the city has a huge student community, a brilliant independent scene and plenty happening beyond campus.

Our three new properties are all located within easy reach of the city’s universities, while Archways and Leadmill Point are also just a short walk from Sheffield railway station.

That means more options for students looking for a well-connected home in the city, whether you want to be closer to campus, transport links or the centre of Sheffield.

Meet our new Sheffield communities

Archways
218 student rooms in a well-connected Sheffield location.

Leadmill Point
446 student rooms, with major investment and refurbishment planned to give the property a fresh new look and feel.

Westhill Hall
499 student rooms, with further improvements planned as it becomes part of Flow Student.

Over the coming months, we’ll be working with our teams to bring each property into the Flow Student family and make sure students living with us get the experience, support and service they expect.

Investing in better student living

For us, growing isn’t simply about adding more rooms.

We want to create student communities where people can settle in quickly, feel supported and get on with enjoying university life.

That means investing in our buildings, our teams and the overall student experience.

Leadmill Point will benefit from a significant refurbishment programme, while improvements are also planned at Archways and Westhill Hall.

And because we now have six Flow Student locations across Sheffield, our local teams will be able to work even more closely together to support residents across the city.

Already booked with us?

If you’re already living with Flow Student or have booked a room for the 2026/27 academic year, nothing changes with your booking.

Our existing Sheffield communities remain part of Flow Student as normal, and our teams will continue to be there to support you before, during and after move-in.

Looking for student accommodation in Sheffield?

You’ll now have even more Flow Student options to choose from.

Whether you’re starting university, returning for another year, coming through Clearing or simply looking for a new place to live, our team can help you find the right room and location.

And this is only the beginning.

Flow Student is continuing to grow across the UK, with more student communities joining the portfolio as we work towards giving more students a better, simpler and more flexible way to live at university.

More Sheffield. More choice. More Flow
