Adjusting to Life in the UK
Moving to the UK isn’t just about arriving, it’s about adjusting.
New customs, new rhythms, new ways of doing things and often, new questions you
didn’t know you’d need to ask. You might be a seasoned traveller or embanking on your first major relocation.
The UK has many unspoken rules that can still surprise you, from British politeness and small talk to school culture, workplace norms, or understanding what’s really being said.
Our Cultural Orientation service is designed to help individuals and families settle in smoothly, connect faster, and feel at home sooner. Delivered in conjunction with our trusted partners, it’s available as a standalone service and fully tailored to your lifestyle, language needs, and relocation goals.
What’s Included
- Pre-Arrival Briefings, that can start before you arrive covering daily life, cultural expectations, regional insights, and what to know before landing.
- Language & Communication Support including regional accents, common slang, workplace expressions, and everyday conversation tips available for all language levels.
- Social & Everyday Etiquette to help you learn what’s considered polite (and what’s not), how people communicate, how to make new friends, and how to feel more at ease in everyday interactions.
- Cultural Sensitivities & Local Awareness on how to navigate the UK’s national and regional identities, with respectful tips on social cues, holidays, and traditions across the country.
- Professional & Workplace Culture to help understand how British workplaces operate, how meetings are run, what ‘feedback’ really means, and how to build strong working relationships.
- Support for Families to help kids adjust to school life and social norms, helping children settle, build friendships, and feel confident in new routines.
- Hybrid & Flexible delivery designed around your arrival date, schedule, and location.
- Light touch check-in or additional sessions as you settle in and come up against new situations or questions.
This is the kind of feedback we hear all the time, because cultural adjustment isn’t about learning rules, it’s about feeling confident, connected, and at ease in your new life.
When culture makes sense, everything else becomes easier, school, work, friendships, even finding your rhythm again.
