Our Community
Blackfriars Hall is a friendly community centred on the student common room, and with regular social events.
Our two research centres host regular public lectures, and these are open to all students – see the Events Calendar.
Hall students share the buildings with the members of the Priory and students in the Blackfriars Studium. Students are welcome to participate in the various groups hosted by the Priory, details of which can be found on the Priory’s website.
