	The ISIS Facility at the Rutherford Appleton Laboratory in the UK produces intense neutron and muon beams for condensed matter research. It operates at 50 Hz accelerating 3x10¹³ protons per pulse via a 70 MeV H⁻ linac and an 800 MeV proton synchrotron, delivering a mean beam power of 0.2 MW. A favoured first step to upgrade ISIS towards the megawatt regime is replacement of the linac with a new 180 MeV injector. Studies of this upgrade, which aims to increase mean beam power up to 0.5 MW are continuing. This paper summarises designs for a new injection region including beam dynamics and related hardware.
