"How do the laundry facilities work?"

Each hall site across The Village and The City has its own launderette with large washing machines and tumble dryers. A wash costs £2.60 and a tumble dry costs £1.20. All our machines are managed by Circuit Laundry. You'll get a laundry card when you arrive so you can top-up and use the machines. Circuit also have a new laundry app so you can pay for your laundry straight from your mobile phone!
