Host when it suits you.
Hosting fits around family & working life.
Students out all day.
Share your home, meet new students from around the world and learn about other cultures.

We welcome Host Families whether you have children, you're retired, working or single. There is no requirement for you to be a 'family' in the conventional sense. The unifying factor is the willingness to provide a warm, homely environment where TONBRIDGE HOST FAMILIES students are treated as family members.
The students are out all day, making it ideal to fit around work or family life. The students want to learn English, therefore speaking a foreign language is not a requirement.

Although a Host Family role is a paid one, for our Hosts it is much more than just financial reward. The right Host can really make a difference to the experience for a young person while they are away from home in the UK. We have many students who have formed a lifelong bond with their Host Families, which is extremely rewarding.
The English family is the real link with the British culture and are part of the students lasting memories of their school trip to the UK.
