Work on a £500m project to create a world class centre for research and innovation in later living could start in the North East next year, developers say.
In March it was revealed that Newcastle University had formed a joint venture with Genr8 Kajima Regeneration Ltd to take forward the huge project to transform 29 acres at the former Newcastle General Hospital site.
The land is set to become home to a number of new buildings, with hopes that the Campus for Ageing and Vitality will become the global epicentre of research and innovation into ageing and living well.
