Local Area Guides

Sun, sea, sand and study - what more could you ask for? Throw in a rich mix of green spaces to explore, retail therapy, activity and leisure pursuits, as well as plenty of entertainment and you have something to inspire you around every corner.

Bournemouth

Bournemouth has a long history as a coastal resort, but there's also a much more vibrant side to this seaside town. A hot-bed for wellbeing and wellness, digital and technology, and outdoor and leisure interests means this is the perfect place to live while you study.

Pokesdown and Boscombe

Great neighbourhoods full of character and charm. Bag a bargain at one of the vintage and antique shops, peruse the vibrant food markets, or attend live music, gigs and theatre at some of the best kept secret venues.

Southbourne

Southbourne is a thriving, cool neighbourhood, where you can experience independent shops and eateries, sip on the famous local beer, or wander to the clifftops and take in the idyllic vistas.

Christchurch

Christchurch is a beautiful town boasting a harbour, scenic riverside walks, and lots of history and heritage. There's nothing quite like a cosy, roaring fire in a traditional pub after a long walk.

Our neighbouring town #Southbourne (2 minutes away from campus) is such a lovely friendly community. The local traders and businesses supported by the Southbourne public are putting on a lovely community weekend event 27th and 28th July: introducing: "Southbourne Revival" and invite you all to attend. It will be a fantastic free event, offering something for all the family including live music on the bandstand, fun, tasty food, local drink and vintage vibes.

Make Your Mark Through Clearing 💜💪🏼🏋🏾‍♂️ Our expert team of staff, assisted by our exercise and rehabilitation students, supportedathlete Patrick Sylla in our on-site Sport Performance Centre with the primary aim ofreducing his injury risk. Patrick had a long track record of hamstring injuries and so we used a combination of movement analysis techniques and isokinetic strength and power testing to identify potential areas of weakness and asymmetry that might be causing unequal loading of structures. After assessment we then implemented a bespoke conditioning programme along with a “pre-habilitation” programme to best prepare him for training and competition and reduce the likelihood of him suffering future injuries. Discover how you can make a difference to the lives of athletes, teams and weekend warriors. 🌐 www.aecc.ac.uk/clearing 📱 (+44) 01202 436375 #Clearing #Clearing2019 #Bournemouth #Sport #Sports #Exercise #Chiropractic #Health #Healthcare #HealthScience #TransformingLives #HeyAECC #University #Dorset
