Greenwich
London is moving East, Greenwich is already there! Greenwich has a lively social and cultural scene and boasts its own World Heritage Site and yet it is only minutes away from the London’s West End, with its theatres, clubs and shops. Greenwich now boasts Europe’s premier entertainment arena – The O2 – and is soon to be host to major events for the 2012 Olympic and Paralympics Games. Greenwich is a great place to live, to work, to learn and to enjoy!
