| The HELSA group of schools welcomes business from Agents just as much as from private individuals.
What makes working with HELSA unique is that we appreciate the things which are important to you – delivering a quality product that you can have complete confidence in. After all, your reputation and our reputation go hand in hand. Why do HELSA schools care more than anyone? Because being in a part of the country where there are fewer tourists we have to work harder for our money. We are keener to make sure that your customers, our guests, have a fantastic time.
So what are the key “unique selling points” (USPs) of the Heart of England?
• Beautiful variety – from Robin Hood’s Nottingham to Shakespeare’s Stratford-upon-Avon; from the wonderful Welsh border country to the quaint Cotswolds; from the magnificent Worcester cathedral to the mighty Warwick Castle; from the lovely market town of Shrewsbury to the regency splendour of Cheltenham; and not forgetting the chic and bustling city of Birmingham! There is something for everyone.
• “Can do” mentality – the Heart of England is a place for the discerning visitor; for those who want to get away from cosmopolitan London and the crowded resorts of the South Coast. HELSA schools have had to work even harder to build their reputations. We know how to give real customer service – nothing is too much trouble, and your customers, our guests, will appreciate what we can offer.
• Location, location, location! Where better to be than right in the middle of the action? Birmingham (in the centre of the region) is just 75 minutes by train from London. Most HELSA schools are within 2 ½ hours of the capital and London Heathrow Airport. 2 ½ hours and you are in the middle of “real England” – leave your worries behind and enjoy yourself. And what if you do want to visit Wales, Manchester, Oxford, Cambridge, London, Bath? Well they are literally next door!
• Value for money – no capital city, no capital prices. Just good honest value for money. Many low cost airlines serve the airports of Birmingham, Coventry, Nottingham East Midlands, Bristol and Manchester, meaning that you can start your visit on the right footing. Being away from the overcrowded south east there are fewer schools, more host families, so you can get the best quality accommodation at a lower price. Fewer tourists means you pay the same prices as the locals. Fewer English language students means we schools have to work harder to earn your respect, and your money!
• All underpinned by Quality with a capital ‘Q’. All the HELSA schools are accredited by The British Council and are members of English UK, the largest body of English language schools in the world. There are proper systems in place to guarantee that your customers will have a great time. And if things go wrong there is a proper system in place to deal with your needs – not that we ever need it, but it’s comforting to know.
