Harlow is in West Essex and borders with Hertfordshire. It is conveniently situated for London, only 40 miles from Cambridge and has good transport networks to neighbouring towns. With a population of approximately 80,000 people, it is a thriving, busy town, with a variety of shops, businesses and recreational facilities.

Harlow was built as a new town in 1947 and designed by Sir Frederick Gibberd. He designed it around separate neighbourhoods each of which included a health centre, local shops, schools and community facilities and all surrounded by green Owedges'.

Harlow continues to develop to cater for the growing local community with new housing, the development of the Town Centre and constant improvements to education and the environment, all of which make Harlow the perfect place in which to study, live, work and play!
