Sussex Downs

Before taking on this role, I spent around ten years working alongside another Local Coordinator in one of the London areas, gaining valuable experience supporting international students and host families.
I live with my partner of 20 years and our two teenage sons in the picturesque village of Godstone, Surrey. Surrounded by lovely countryside and close to the Sussex borders, Godstone is ideally located — about 40 minutes from Brighton, 20 minutes from Crawley & Gatwick, and 35 minutes from Horsham.
I thoroughly enjoy working in this sector and take great pride in ensuring that students feel safe, supported, and well cared for while they study here in the UK. It’s incredibly rewarding to see them grow in confidence and make the most of their time here.
About the Area
Godstone is a village and civil parish in Surrey.
Sussex is a historic county in South East England that was formerly an independent medieval Anglo-Saxon kingdom. It is bounded to the west by Hampshire, north by Surrey, northeast by Kent, south by the English Channel, and divided for many purposes into the ceremonial counties of West Sussex and East Sussex.
Brighton and Hove, though part of East Sussex, was made a unitary authority in 1997, and as such, is administered independently of the rest of East Sussex. Brighton and Hove was granted City status in 2000.
Sussex has three main geographic sub-regions, each oriented approximately east to west. In the southwest is the fertile and densely populated coastal plain. North of this are the rolling chalk hills of the South Downs, beyond which is the well-wooded Sussex Weald.
