    • Group of interns shared accomodation at local university over summer so there was a lot of social events within the group

    5/5

    • Accomodation not cheap, expensive to get into London to do anything, local area in Surrey relatively inexpensive

  • 15. Were there many opportunities to get involved in activities outside of work?

    • There were events organised outside of work, often any clubs/societies would have to be researched to find out about and join
