For two days in June and July, the student areas of Leeds descends into chaos. With over 50,000 students across Headingley, Hyde Park, Burley and Kirkstall gearing up to move out of their old homes, many students face a stressful period.
Across Leeds, and the rest of the country, there is an annual changeover period for student tenants. Most student tenancies will end on June 30 with the new ones beginning on July 1.
However, this causes a bit of an issue, the main one being many people are left in limbo for 24 hours until they can collect the keys to their new house. Across these areas today (June 30), many students have been frantically trying to vacate their old properties with vans and cars packed full of their belongings.
