Trowbridge

Earn up to £304/week tax-free by hosting with Wiltshire Host Families

About Our Trowbridge Centre

Trowbridge was the first centre we established and has been running since 2010. It’s led by Pauline and Haydn Briggs, who do an excellent job coordinating and hosting students. 

Our Trowbridge centre typically sees two coaches come in per week, with schools visiting from all over Europe, including France, Czechia, Hungary, and The Netherlands.

The drop-off and collection point for Trowbridge is Lovemead Car Park, located just down the road from Tesco Extra on County Way.
