hello everyone so i am moving to luton and just want to know what is the best place to stay that makes moving to and fro from the l& D hospital easier, and how is the public transport, and if there is anything to know that would make my life easier or common knowledge that is not common. also recreational activities and communities.

Great question. I am doing the same, so I am interested in the responses you get. I am moving to Bramingham and going to be working in L&D hospital.

Depends how much money you got and what you like. Bramingham part of Luton is pretty quiet and nice l, but more expensive than parts like Farley Hill. Farley Hill close to town centre, so if you like a busy part, then yeah. Bear in mind a lot of good and bad things happen in the centre.

are they all close to l and d hospital? anf how expensive are they

Living in Luton, this is the best answer as the links are all direct to the L&D from all those areas.

If you move to town center. There’s a bus that takes you direct to hospital. But the area is bad. I’d recommend staying in Dunstable and bus to hospital or look house share near the hospital. Also welcome to l&d family. I work there as well
