Why Us?
There are 3.2 million people in the UK in higher education with a combined spending power of £15.5 billion.
The Students’ Union is made up of all the students at Sussex University and Brighton and Sussex Medical School. Last year we had over 14,000 students and over the course of the next few years this will increase to over 18,000 students.
At Sussex Students’ Union we have excellent and direct links with our students. We also regularly undertake
“if they do take on your brand, they can take it to
great places for you”

on market research to gain a greater understanding of needs and want to identify market trends. The Students’ Union regularly communicate via e-communications and traditional direct marketing methods. We host many major sell out events and entertainments and provide an extremely successful Freshers week year in year out.
We are in an ideal position to provide effective marketing opportunities to our vibrant and vast student population whilst offering your organisation access to this highly sought after audience.

“It is important to target students when they are at University, as graduates they are more likely to be high-spending consumers of the future, as they earn a third more than non-graduates over their lifetime” NUS in The Guardian
