The following decade, the property was converted by the Stay Homeless Project into a homeless youth hostel and became the subject of the television programme Challenge Anneka.For those too young to remember, the show involved presenter Anneka Rice being presented with a task to complete within a certain period - usually in aid of a charitable cause and usually within a couple of days.

In the episode, Anneka was invited to the grand opening of the Oakengates hostel, only to find it unfinished. It ceased operating as a hostel in 2010 and had been left empty until planning permission was granted in 2017 for conversion into multiple apartments.Made up of 12 apartments - two one-beds, nine two-beds and one three-beds - it features modern stained glass windows and private parking at the rear.
