Guide to Sheffield

A bird view of a city with buildings and trees.

Sheffield is situated at the foot of the Pennine highlands at a point where four streams—the Sheaf, Porter, Rivelin, and Loxley—running in deep valleys converge to form the River Don, surrounded by nature.  It is one of the UK's most popular places for students to go to university. The city is large enough to offer a great range of restaurants, shopping, theatre, cinemas, bars and culture; yet small enough to find your way around quickly and feel part of the community.

This city is diverse, affordable, and safe. Attracting students from 150 countries around the world, Sheffield is proud of its diverse community. You won't need to go far to find international shops, social groups and even friends. And, with its welcoming community, you'll feel right at home right away.

“Being a Hybr Student Ambassador was the best experience whilst at university. It provided so many unique opportunities and even helped land me my first job our of uni!”

Lisa

Brand Ambassador

“Hybr were very capable of dealing with me. Each member of staff had a very professional approach. I rate their business approach very highly.”

Rob

Bristol Landlord

“Borough Market is in London Bridge, it has lots of stalls, bars and restaurants to choose from. It’s really nice to grab something from a stall and find somewhere to sit near the river”
