the world and all walks of life, Londons diverse
community has something to offer every visitor.

little reminder of home, you will find it in London.

out to eat or drink, watch a film or a West End show, or
visit one of the many cultural events on offer every day.
All activities are carefully selected to help develop
your English in the birthplace of the English language.
They include a visit to the Houses of Parliament, a
guided walking tour of the City and trips to Camden
Market and many more famous sights.
