Description
Join us for a fun and interactive Global Café, where we’ll explore the charming, and sometimes confusing. traditions of life in the UK.
Learn about everything from the art of queuing to constant apologising to the national obsession with the weather.
Of course, no British experience is complete without tea and biscuits, which will be Fairtrade and served by The SU Green Team.
So come along, sip, snack and learn something new with fellow students!
