Semester Abroad with The Open University?

Obviously with traditional universities they have partner universities that you can study at. Is studying abroad with the Open University possible? I know they used to be a part of Erasmus+ scheme but thats obviously been liquidated now.

Any ideas?

As far as I can tell, they don't offer anything like this any more. You can try asking the student support team?

No, but that doesn't mean you can't organise something yourself. You won't get funding for it, but if you can pay for yourself (or even get a job while abroad) then it is possible. Sweden is my recommendation because it is very easy to apply directly for individual modules that form a semester programme there. Or find a one year programme you like (that's what I did in Norway).
