The Manchester Student Homes Good Neighbours Team works closely with local residents' associations and long standing community groups to get them working with students in their local area. We also help find solutions to potential issues raised by students living in their local community when and if they arise.

Welcome to the Community!

Manchester Student Homes welcomes you to the Community with a handy guide to living off campus. The guide provides lots of useful hints and tips including, a moving in checklist, area guide, housing advice and information about how to get involved with local community groups and activities.
