‘University people should be responsible citizens with a healthy concern for the problems of other people and a generous spirit which brings them to face these problems and to resolve them in the best possible way… I measure the sincerity of concern for others in terms of works of service, and I know of thousands of cases of students in many countries who have refused to build their own little private worlds. They are giving themselves to others through their professional work, which they try to carry out with human perfection, through educational endeavours, through social and welfare activities, in a spirit of youth and cheerfulness.’
Saint Josemaria Escrivá
Ashwell House, an intercollegiate hall of residence, offers catered accommodation to 45 female students.
Located just off City Road, it is within easy reach of most London universities. By combining an atmosphere of serious study with a warm, family environment, Ashwell provides the ideal place for young women who want to make the most of their time at university.
Since 1962, Ashwell House has been home to women from Great Britain and all over the world pursuing their studies in London. Originally situated in Notting Hill, Ashwell moved to its current location in 1990.
Ashwell House is a member of European University College Association(EUCA),a European network of Collegiate Halls of Residence offering a complete range of activities to provide all-round formation to university students.
Events and activities organised at Ashwell are open to residents and non-residents alike. Activities of a spiritual or doctrinal nature are entrusted to Opus Dei, a Personal Prelature of the Catholic Church.
