While London is full of incredible sights and experiences, sometimes it’s nice to take a break, explore the countryside, or visit new cities. Luckily, the UK has a great rail network, making it easy to hop on a train and discover exciting destinations outside the capital. Whether you’re looking for historic landmarks, stunning natural scenery, or just a peaceful escape, here are the top things to do outside of London that are perfect for students. https://lnkd.in/dG_PGAQg

October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month, a time dedicated to raising awareness about breast cancer and supporting those affected by this devastating disease. One of the key events during this month is the Breast Cancer Wear It Pink campaign, one of the UK’s largest and most impactful fundraising events. The campaign’s mission is simple but effective: wear pink, raise money, and contribute to life-saving breast cancer research and support services. https://lnkd.in/eDYv_9Es

For many international students, one of the biggest challenges of living abroad is adjusting to the unfamiliar, especially when it comes to food. Whether it’s a craving for a dish from home, the smell of spices that remind you of your family kitchen, or the comfort of traditional meals, finding familiar food can make you feel more connected to home. Luckily, London’s incredibly diverse food scene offers plenty of options to explore authentic cuisines from around the world. https://lnkd.in/eaEF-bMA

We celebrated #WorldMentalHealthDay with a tea and talk session for our staff last week. Everyone was encouraged to write an appreciation note for a colleague. Sometimes we get caught up in our daily tasks, and we don't take time to appreciate our colleagues. These little notes brought some smiles and good cheer in the office—thanks to our HR for this initiative. Remember, taking care of your mental health and others is an everyday thing. Take 5 minutes to drop an email or message of encouragement or appreciation to someone you work with today.
