They regularly check-in with you and your flatmates via Microsoft Teams calls. However, if you need help or advice with life in halls, you can schedule a one-to-one call with a Student Living Ambassador at any time by contacting livingsupport@bath.ac.uk.
‘In all of these flats there's a maximum of maybe five people so it's much easier to keep the kitchen clean... it's a more tight knit community, which I really like.’
