Are you an international student? We’d love to see you at our international events! Life in a foreign country is challenging, confusing and difficult.

We understand the difficulties that you might be facing and would like to offer you friendships, hospitality and love so that you may feel welcome in York. We have a weekly international cafe or event every Monday. No matter where you are from, we'd love to see you! Come along with friends to meet more new friends, learn more about different cultures and practice your English. It is free and every one is always welcome. Life in a foreign country can be fun, fruitful and exciting. Let us help you to make the most of your life in York!
