Brighton is situated on the South Coast of England, roughly 90 minutes south of London by train, located in East Sussex. It is a picturesque seaside town, rich in diversity, history and individuality. Famous for its pier and North Laines, Brighton has lots to discover! The project will take place in Brighton, East Sussex, England. Brighton is a vibrant city where the volunteers will explore British culture and develop their language skills. Cultural visits and leisure activities will be organised together with the group. Visits to close-by sites will ensure that the group get the whole feeling of the city. Surrounding Brighton is the South Downs, a national park providing great hiking opportunities to reach great views of the county. The Concordia Coordinator will help volunteers make plans for their free time – but volunteers will be expected to contribute ideas and suggestions for activities.
