Plus … our student team
We’re helped out by our talented team of student Administrative Assistants - Georgia, Stephanie, Melissa, Siân and Rebecca.  You’ll usually find one of them at our reception desk, busily sending emails or inputting data.

In addition, our Drop In sessions are run by four student volunteers - Sevinc, Megdi, Yichun and Cynthia.
