Students will then meet with their mentors, seeing them perhaps once a term, usually over lunch in the mentor's offices. This can sometimes leads to work placements and training contracts. The theatre also has the benefit of a reasonably priced restaurant. The thrills of Alton Towers are only a 30 minute drive away. There is something to suit every pocket whether it be in terms of high-class restaurants or simple pizzerias, expensive apartments or inexpensive bedsits.

The University has the benefit of superb sporting facilities. The sports centre is located close to the Law School and a public swimming pool is situated nearby. Almost all kinds of sporting activities are catered for either on campus or within a short distance of the University. Our experience to date has shown that students enrolled on the Legal Practice Course build up a strong bond with their fellow students, mainly as a result of working together in small groups, and the comparatively small numbers on the course. There are many functions and other social activities involving both staff and students and the Summer Ball and Law Society Dinner at Christmas are lively, popular occasions.
