Back in 2004, we became one of four founding members of a new set of standards for student accommodation: the National Code for Assured Accommodation.
We’ve been signed up to the code ever since, which means we meet strict standards for health and safety, fire safety, security, maintenance and repairs, facilities, and more.
And remember, your belongings are also insured through Howden for Students.
We know student life isn’t stress-free, and we’re here to listen. Our teams on the ground can signpost you to services in your city and university, and some are specially trained. They are supported by our dedicated Student Support Team, working closely with your university ensuring that you receive the right level of support for any challenges you may be facing.
Our teams are trained to follow our welfare procedure and signpost to teams and partners who can assist you as and when needed. We have a dedicated Student Support team who have extensive knowledge and experience of student life, and who also work closely with our University partners.
We have partnered with Health Assured to provide you with a dedicated Student Wellbeing helpline available to all our residents. We also partner with Student Minds, the UK’s student mental health charity. They empower students and members of the university community to look after their own mental health, support others and create change.
Our Emergency Control Centre is available 24/7, 365 days a year. You can reach them on 0300 303 1611 or via a call point on site.
