Our relationship with our neighbours is very important to us. As a Leeds Beckett University student, you need to be aware of the responsibilities you have while on campus and in the local community.
You have a duty to behave appropriately as outlined in your student contract and if your behaviour is inappropriate the university will take disciplinary action.
There is no such thing as a ‘student area’ in Leeds. Wherever you live, your neighbours will include people from all walks of life and all ages. Every year your neighbours welcome and support students to get to know the area, from letting you know your bin collection day to advice on the best local takeaway. In return, they ask that you consider their daily lives as you live yours.
Helping others, looking out for those around you, keeping the noise down and being friendly might seem like small things, but they can make a huge difference.
Living in a connected and supportive community helps mental health, not just yours, but your neighbours too. Be kind to them and be the best neighbour you can be.
