The university provides duvet, sheets, two pillows and towels.

Kitchens:

Each flat has its own kitchen, complete with:
• Oven
• microwave
• dining table with chairs
• Kettle
• Toaster
• Fridge
• Freezer
• Dustpan and brush.

As the accommodation will be self-catered, you will need to provide your own cutlery and crockery, such as pots and pans; however, there are many places to go out and eat on campus if you do not wish to cook.

Flat details:

We will have exclusive use of a number of blocks, each block being the same size and having the same number of flats.

Flat share requests:

If you wish to share a flat with a particular person we will do our best to accommodate this but we cannot guarantee it.

Offsite accommodation:

We are aware the on-site accommodation may not meet some people’s needs and some people may wish to consider some of the many off-site accommodation options nearby. The BiCon team do not have the capacity to recommend or book any off-site accommodation for attenders, but we encourage people to share information and chat about this on the BiCon UK Facebook community.
