Launch Pad Plus - UK Starter Pack

Why Go?

Orientation meeting

Learn all you need to know about living and working in the UK by attending your London orientation meeting. From the practical stuff like accommodation, transportation, health and safety - to the fun stuff: food, drink, merrymaking and travel, its all covered. Not only will you gain valuable information, but also you will meet other travelers from around the world who are as excited about being in London as you! It's a great way to start off your working holiday adventure.

Bank Account set up and banking information

We can help you get your bank account set up in just 72 hours! We give you all the information you need to take to London so when you attend your orientation session, you can get your bank account set up within 72 hours of your meeting. Why waste time in long cues and completing endless paperwork when you could be out discovering your new city?

Arrival Transfer

You can arrive at your accommodation in style with our arrival transfer. Whether you are arriving from Heathrow or Gatwick, you will be taken to the heart of London on services that operate regularly all year round (except Christmas day). If you are staying at St Christopher's you will be taken to your accommodation, whilst those staying at London Accommodation will be dropped off at Paddington with easy access to transport to get to your accommodation.

UK Sim Card

Let your family and friends know you have arrived safely by giving them a call. You will be given your new number before you leave home so that you can get phone calls as soon as you pick up your SIM card at the orientation meeting. Most phones are compatible, but just check that your mobile accepts international cards before you leave. In addition we will give you a calling card so you can make that all important call home free of charge!

Job Assistance

From CV building and interview tips to information on the UK job market and useful employment leads, we've got it covered. We give you the tools you need to go after that dream job-and the rest is up to you!

Cheap Accommodation

We have teamed up with some of the best backpacker and accommodation providers to offer some exclusive deals to you, from centrally located St Christopher's to the longer term shared accommodation. You can choose your length of stay before you leave, after a big flight you will be grateful that you have this pre-arranged!
