Local Area Tours

Getting to know the local area
Student Led Tours
Not sure what's around? Or maybe you're preparing to make that step off campus?
We usually run a set of local area tours, where you can meet new people and learn more about what you can expect when moving!
Normally starting on campus, experience what the journey from campus to your location would be like and be guided on a tour which explains the features of the town and where you can go to shop, work and socialise, pointing out the best spots and useful amenities.
We currently have no tour dates available to book, however if you are interested in this please let us know by emailing us at
, we'll put you on the contact list!If you can't make the tours, or there aren't any available then check out the ActionBounds below, these have been set up to follow the same route our student tour leads take, and to give you little tips and tricks to what life is really like there!
Exploring off-campus- to visit or to live
If you'd like to explore off campus, there are plenty of local areas to get involved in. We've created a set of local area guides that you can check out designed to highlight some of the many things to do, if you're interested in a day out, or things to be aware of it you're looking to move off-campus!
