ON WEDNESDAY WE HAVE OUR FIRST GLOBAL CAFE OF THIS ACADEMIC YEAR 🥳🥳🥳

If you've not been along before, we meet up each Wednesday early evening (from 6-8pm). The Cafe is aimed at international students in particular but everyone is welcome. Hot chocolate and snacks provided free, plus a variety of different activities (see attached programme). We rotate round the different campuses, starting this week at the Chapel at FCH.
Come along and meet lots of other friendly people from all over the world, and hear a little about settling in to life in the UK from students who've been here for a while.

International Students Day Trip to Oxford on Saturday 15th May.

We are going on a trip to beautiful historic Oxford, which is about an hour away from Cheltenham. We'll be leaving first thing in the morning (with a pick up point at each campus) and will get back late afternoon. The trip is free but is dependent on you getting a negative Covid test within 24 hours of the trip (ie. you need to get tested on Friday 14th May). These are free at the university testing centres and you can book a slot on the MyGlos app.
I can take up to 50 people on the coach (you must wear a face mask for the duration of the bus journey), and will allocate places in the order which people contact me. Please email me at [email protected]

Meanwhile, hope you have a fantastic Easter break.
