WELCOME GUIDE 2015
Living Sustainably
Living Off Campus
At Keele we want to reduce our environmental
impact and this requires your help in your
accommodation. Information and advice will be
provided in Halls about energy saving and
reducing and recycling waste, and there will be
competitions throughout the year to see which
Halls can reduce their impact the most.
You may have chosen to live off campus in
private accommodation or you may have decided
to live at home throughout your studies. Either
way, we are committed to supporting you and
making sure that you have a great student
experience here at Keele.
If you have any queries or suggestions about
environmental related issues to do with your
accommodation on campus then you can contact
the Environmental team in the Estates
Directorate at [email protected]
For those students living off campus – look out
for advice on saving energy (and money!) at the
talks and events aimed at off campus students.
There are dedicated pages about living in the
community and for our local students living off
campus and commuting to Keele who we fondly
call LoCo students! Take some time out to have a
look at them as they have loads of useful
information on making friends, joining societies
and making the most of your time at Keele as
well as feeling a part of the Keele community.

Also, don’t forget to join the LoCo Facebook
Group to meet and make friends with other
students living off campus – it’s always useful
to find out who is living around you so you can
share taxis home after a night out!

Depending on where you are living, you may
