We understand the importance of healthcare, that's why we have Aylesbury Campus and a whole campus in Uxbridge, West London, dedicated to Nursing, Healthcare and Allied Health courses. So if you decide to study one of these courses, you'll likely to be based in Aylesbury or Uxbridge. Both Campuses houses a range of working wards and simulation labs for our students to use. Simulation is an important aspect of our Nursing and Healthcare programmes. Students regularly spend time in these areas, to practice technical skills and use the newest technologies, in a safe and supportive environment.

Workshops for some of our programmes are held at Missenden Abbey Conference Centre, in Great Missenden. A 12th Century former medieval abbey, set within 10 acres of beautiful grounds in the heart of the Chilterns, Missenden Abbey blends a historic building with a purpose-built conference and training facility.
