LONDONIST IS HERE TO SUPPORT YOU!

 

 

You want to travel, need to travel but you feel unsure, afraid even, so many things that could or will happen.

Here at Londonist we are striving to support our students as much as possible and have created some Support Packages and advice for you, especially for those who may need to quarantine upon arrival.

 



We know that there are inevitably some bits you may be concerned about whether for yourself or if you are the parent, your child. It is uncertain times and being away from home is already tough, add a pandemic and the idea of having to quarantine to it, it may start feeling unbearable, but it needn’t be. And Londonist is here to support you!

We have compiled a support list of things you may need when you embark on this journey and potentially self-isolation. We are ready to welcome you and make it as easy as it can be.

 

Our Quarantine+ Package is made for these strange times. It includes an airport transfer, two weeks of free accommodation and Hello Fresh voucher to use and much more.  Keeping you safe and occupied in those initial few weeks.
