Nottingham

Nottingham is a vibrant city in the East Midlands of England, with a population of over 323,000. Historically a hub for industries like lace-making and bicycle manufacturing, it’s now a diverse urban centre with a strong economy – the seventh-largest in the UK. Beyond the legend of Robin Hood, Nottingham offers a compelling blend of history and modern life, making it a strategic location for those seeking a base outside of London.

The city boasts a thriving cultural scene and is recognised as a major sporting hub, earning the title “Home of English Sport” in 2015. Key features include world-class sporting facilities, two professional football clubs (Notts County and Nottingham Forest), and a growing reputation for food and events. Nottingham provides a balanced lifestyle with good connectivity to other major UK cities like Sheffield and Birmingham.
