Description
Conversation Club is a fantastic opportunity to meet new people and practise your spoken English in a relaxed atmosphere. We understand that living in a new place is challenging. It isn't always easy to find ways to meet people, speak English and have fun.
UWE Bristol offers a lot of academic support for students, but Conversation Club is an informal place to disconnect from your studies.
Come along and see what it's all about!
