Complaints about student residents in the local community

We take our role in the local community very seriously and do our very best to build partnerships and ensure our local communities share the benefits of our international reputation, global connections and world-class facilities.

We work hard, hand in hand with our Students’ Union and local partners, to help our students to understand their responsibilities as local residents and how to be a good neighbour. But we do recognise that from time to time there will be concerns and subsequent complaints from local residents.

We have developed close working relationships with Local Policing Teams in Coventry and Warwickshire and the safer communities and environmental health teams at Coventry City Council and Warwick District Council and we will continue to work hard with these partners and the local community to reduce instances of anti-social behaviour in the local area.
