"Moving to a new country can be exciting but also a little overwhelming. That’s why our Home Away From Home campaign is here – to help international students feel welcome, supported and part of the UEA family. We’ll explore Norwich together, share food, stories and culture, and create a space where you can make friends and feel at home – no matter how far you’ve travelled. Wherever you’re from, you belong here."

- Bhaskar (Postgraduate officer) and Chris (Campaigns and Democracy Officer)
