What's on at Medway
This is a new feature of the Medway Student Centre site, and we hope we can develop it further with your help!
A short guide to the local area
The Medway campus is situated in ME4, in an area known as Chatham Maritime, North Kent, not far from the neighbouring towns of Gillingham and Chatham.
Medway is a collection of towns (the main towns being Chatham, Gillingham, Rochester, Strood, and Rainham) with an abundance of history and several places of interest.
Throughout the year the Medway towns play host to a number of festivals, events and shows shown at the Central and Brook theatres, making Medway a vibrate area. Among these activities the area also has a wide variety of shops, services, dining, arts and leisure facilities.
Medway has a rich history, and is famous for its links to Charles Dickens (with the Dickens World attraction in the dockside area opposite the Medway campus), the naval dockyard and Rochester Castle.
