About Us
UK Living Guide is your friendly, no-nonsense resource for anyone settling into life in the UK – whether you're a fresh international student, a new worker on a visa, an expat family making the move, or just someone planning a longer stay.

We’ve been there ourselves (or helped plenty of friends and family through it), and we know how scattered and outdated some information can get.
