In all the excitement of going to university, please remember that the basic home comforts and a few small luxuries can make all the difference to settling in.

Quite possibly you have seen websites, brochures and leaflets showing scenes of university life including cosy rooms with every home comfort. The reality is you will be presented with a room that is not much more than a basic shell, with just a bed, a desk & chair and a wardrobe. You will need to provide most of the items yourself, such as:

Duvets Pillows Sheets Towels Clothes hangers Cutlery Crockery Glasses Pans Cooking utensils

Imagine how easy life would be if you could:

find all your essential items, from bed linen to cutlery, had been delivered to your room before you even got there have other desirable items, such as bicycles, televisions and music systems, delivered as soon as you confirmed your arrival get someone else to transport your possessions off campus at the end of term and store them away securely for your return have your belongings securely shipped home, whether in the UK or anywhere else in the world

Visit us with your parents, friends and fellow students before, during and after your time at university or college.

This is typical of a study-room you will be given at your halls of residence, a bare shell with very few essentials.

We have all experienced campus life ourselves and some of us now have our own children who are getting very close to doing the same. So naturally we share many of the same concerns you are bound to be having.

Imagine how confident you would feel:

if your child could begin their new experience with all the essential items, from bed linen to cutlery, waiting in their study-room so they did not have to got out shopping the moment they arrived that desirable items, from laptops to hi-fi systems, could be delivered shortly after they had settled in to know your child did not need to carry large amounts of cash or have to wait to open a bank account (often a long process for overseas students) before being able to purchase all the things they needed if, at the end of term, we collected their possessions and store them securely until they returned that, at the end of their time in the UK, your child's precious belongings were securely freighted home knowing that we provide a direct delivery service throughout the year for those little luxuries that you might want to send them for their birthday or special occasion

Click2Campus is the only company that delivers this complete service

When travelling overseas to study the language, currency, culture and even climate can all take some time to adjust to.

Minimise the initial problems and help them make the most of their experience in the UK.

Know that your child has everything they need to live comfortably, is settled in their new environment, is able to focus on their studies and is, most importantly . . . . . happy.

How do Click2Campus help? By taking away many of the basic difficulties we will also take away many of your concerns.

If you have any questions please go to our contact page for details on how we can be reached - we always appreciate hearing from parents because we share your concerns.
