Common Life

Living at Westcott

“Westcott challenged me in many ways to grow very quickly. Learning to appreciate differences and really live with them, makes parish life very rich. I am still overwhelmed at the open and loving support I received.”
Revd ANDREW STALEY
Students enjoying the gardens

Students at Westcott span a wide range of ages and come to the college from a great breadth of backgrounds. The heart of our life in community is daily worship in the chapel. We meet together too over meals served in the House's dining room and in our common room furnished with its well stocked and convivial bar. In the middle of our community lies the garden – a place of wonder, peace and beauty.

Hort, the college tortoise

We pray together, study together, eat together and drink together. It's an intense experience, one that forms friendships, sparks conversations and generates ideas that set students thinking for the rest of their lives.
