Home away from Home


Events for and by Royal Holloway's International Student Community

We understand the importance of making new connections when you come to the UK and that's why we created Home Away From Home, a series of events throughout the year that help you meet new people, learn about new cultures and gain a sense of belonging at Royal Holloway.
