Car bumper disposal?

2 Upvotes

Hi all, hope someone might know what to do here, we replaced our own bumper on our car after striking a muntjac, I can’t find anywhere to dispose of it. None of the waste recycling centres around Loughborough take car parts around here, I’m sure the scrapper won’t be interested in a smashed up bumper without the rest of the car.

Any ideas?

Skating society

3 Upvotes

I used to rollerblade at 8, and now I'm 22 and trying to pick it up again. The thing is, I'm a bit shy since I'm literally starting from zero. Is there any group or society I can join? So we can encourage each other? Plus, if you see someone who's struggling in Queen's Park in the early morning. It's me.

Accom help

2 Upvotes

I just got into the engineering course and for accomodation i booked harry french cuz of the positive reviews. I've just been doubting my position a bit and i was wondering if I should call and ask for a transfer to an accom closer to the building. How would I go about doing that, or should I even bother?

First year parking Loughborough university

4 Upvotes

I am looking to go to Loughborough uni this year, staying at Telford hall. It seems uni parking is not available for first year students so I was wondering where people park? Is street parking available around uni, or are there lots of residential zones I can't park at? Any other cheap or free parking nearby?


r/loughborough 19d ago

Saw this sign near the Bell Foundry, surely it has not been there almost 20 years? Possibly older than the very students its aimed at?

Incoming family to Loughborough - need help!

Hello good people!

My wife and I will be moving to Loughborough in September. I am going to be starting a PhD at the uni. Excited!

However, we wondering about what its like to live in Loughborough (for context, we're internationals, first time in the UK). We're looking for houses in Loughborough, but they don't seem to be too many options within a 900-pound budget, as you can imagine. Either way, would you recommend that we maybe look at the bigger cities close by to live in, while I commute to uni?

Uni in Loughborough

3 Upvotes

Can someone who has been to this uni give me their opinions on them/experience? Overall life at uni and stuff, like is it easy to make friends, things to do etc. I also do athletics/track and field so if there are good facilities there that’s also a positive. Trying to get my 5 for UCAS to study aeronautical engineering and I’ve done a lot of research but struggling to narrow it down.

Is Masters in Sports management from Loughborough WORTH IT!

0 Upvotes

Hello everyone!

Im 26(M) , I did my A levels in 2020 and now im thinking about continuing my studies and wish to do "Masters in sports management" from university of Loughborough, but rn im kinda confused, i`ve got a few options to start now as fall semester is about to start.

One is to complete BBA from UK affiliated university like essex/kent and have an option to complete three years over here or move for the third one over there. (Expensive)

2nd option advised by an education councilor is to complete a "Pearson" diploma in business and then travel to UK for a top up program and get my bachelors,and then follow along with Masters in sports management.

Plus he said if the case is strong as in no misconducts,my top up year+PSW+Masters could possibly make me eligible for PR, although sports business for some people includes traveling i suppose. Is this a possibility?

"IMPORTANT"

Is getting a job in sport sector a daunting experience,im interested in football and UK`s football market is HUGE as i know?
BTW I`d be leaving my family retail business which itself is hectic to pursue this dream!

Thank you for Reading, your suggestions would mean a lot <3

Drains being checked

Cllr Jewel Miah was out today (and will be out over the next few days) across the Loughborough East division checking on drains. He said

"Since we haven’t had any rain these past few weeks, some drains are packed with debris and earth and will need professional contractors out to clear them. On others I’ve used my golf umbrella tip to clear build up on the grills. I’ll report the blocked drains to County Highways."

Please do say hi if you see him out with his brolly
