Day 1: The Walkie Talkie
Afternoon
Make your way from the airport to your accommodation. Meet your guide, who will explain rules and safety guidelines. First up, you’re setting off on a walking tour of London’s business and financial hub, before venturing up 20 Fenchurch Street, a skyscraper nicknamed the “Walkie Talkie” for its distinctive shape. Pay a visit to the Sky Garden, where you can wander around the landscaped gardens and the observation deck on the 37th floor for panoramic views from London’s highest public garden!
Evening
Feast on a welcome dinner of traditional British food, like fish and chips, and listen to a trip briefing led by your guide.
Day 2: Meet a member of a start-up
Morning
Head to the Barbican Centre and get creative with a hands-on session focusing on the world of start-ups. The class will divide into groups and brainstorm 1-2 ideas for a start-up company, aided by the guide. Afterwards, make your way to the Bank of England, the beating heart of the UK’s economy. Learn about the role of the bank and why its work is vital for the health of our economy from a member of staff.
Afternoon
Later, have the chance to hear directly from a start-up on their journey. The speaker will talk through their experience of what it was like setting up a company, the challenges and benefits and what skills are needed to thrive in a start-up environment. Then, you will have the chance to engage in a Q&A with them.
Evening
After a day full of learning, spend some time browsing the food stalls from all over the world in the South Bank Market, and pick out a new cuisine to try!
