What to expect from the Housing Fair?
At Bristol Students’ Union, we know that finding a new rental property in Bristol can be a stressful experience for students 😣
Whether this be your first property as you move out of halls, or if you are looking for a new place to call home in your final years.
This is why Bristol Students’ Union have collaborated with the University of Bristol to put on a housing fair for you this year. The Housing Fair is here to equip you with the knowledge and resources you need to make informed decisions about your housing options.
The Housing Fair takes place on 21 November from 12:00pm to 16:00pm in the Anson Rooms of the Richmond Building
