Say ‘bonjour’ to French guests

Host families are needed for French students and teachers who are visiting the Midlands for the fifth year running in March, April and May.

Due to their enjoyment of local attractions over the last few years, the students will be back to indulge in chocolate at Cadbury World, eat freshly cooked fish and chips, visit Shakespeare’s birthplace in Stratford-upon-Avon and find out about the region’s industrial heritage at The Black Country Living Museum.

All students need is a comfortable bed at the end of a busy day and your hospitality will be financially rewarded. This is a great way to exchange language, food and culture, though you do not need to speak French.

If you live within commuting distance of the daily meeting points in Wychbold, Bromsgrove and Longbridge and would like more information about hosting, please call or text Lisa Mistry on 07702 504495
