Moving away from home can be daunting, but here at Plymouth, we want you to feel right at home! Being part of a community can help you to settle in quicker and that is why we arrange regular events for you to attend. It is a fantastic way to meet new people and to have fun with friends you've already made. The events are hosted by our friendly Halls Team.
