Ollerenshaw Room

Up to 160 seated / 150 standing
Ollerenshaw (Dame Kathleen)

Mathematician and politician who overcame adversity from a young age to become one of the most respected Mancunians of her age. Beginning her teaching career at the university as a part-time lecturer in the Department of Mathematics, she would go on to hold some of the most illustrious positions in the city – including Lord Mayor of Manchester and the wonderfully named High Sheriff of Greater Manchester. She achieved all this despite being almost completely deaf by the age of eight. Daughter of Mary and Charles Timpson, Kathleen was born in Manchester, into a family which is now one of the biggest British companies established since 1903.

I went here for a conference and was really impressed as a venue. It was warm, welcoming, nicely decorated and clean. As a learning venue it facilitated the programme well. Good initiative with a small snack charge that goes to charity

Fantastic venue, lovely modern and relaxing feel, perfect for organisational meetings and away days with on-site parking. The on-site event organisers are fabulous, super helpful, friendly and welcoming. Will definitely be booking again in the future.

Very good conference venue. Good acoustics and display screen. Relaxing environment though reached through some narrow twisty roads. Plenty of EV parking.
