A quote from a Printworks Campus student... “I spoke to the Student Funds team, they were great! They helped me out with travel passes and free lunches, and they don’t judge at all! I also told them about how worried I was about making friends, but they understood me straight away. They introduced me to the Students’ Union (LCCSU) that has loads of exciting activities to get involved with. There’s The Big Debate each year and you can even go on trips to London, Alton Towers, and Blackpool. I’m nearly at the end of my course now and I’m so grateful to the Student Life team for all of their help. They’ve helped me so much with my personal circumstances.”
