Everyone is unique. Everyone is important. And everyone belongs in a community where they’re safe, respected and included. At Unite, we strive to make that happen whether you stay with us or work with us.

Leapskills

Partnerships enhancing student life

For 2022/23, we’ve formed partnerships with organisations to add value to your students’ living experience with us. These partnerships are exclusive to Unite Students within the PBSA sector, with information made available to students through our website, app, and by email.

Leapskills

Leapskills is a free resource created by Unite Students, which includes workshops designed to support students to feel fully prepared for the transition into independent living. This programme addresses the most common challenges we have noticed that students face when they move away from home and fosters their confidence and resilience to make this next step in their academic life successfully.

Leapskills is freely available to all schools and colleges. For more information contact: LeapSkills@unitestudents.com
