Tap into a community of over 18,000 students and staff at Lancaster University
There are over 18,000 students and staff at Lancaster University, all waiting to hear from you.
Students are a vital and yet often neglected market for local business: they are experimental and yet fiercely loyal to the brands they know; they are low earners with high levels of disposable income, and they’re the first to try new products and services.
Over 18,000 students and staff make up the community at Lancaster University and many of those are using on-campus experiences and digital advertising to make decisions on where they spend their money. Lancaster University Students’ Union can give you unprecedented access to this exciting market, giving you a bespoke presence in the hottest student spaces from face-to-face at the annual Freshers’ Fair through to featuring in our own student newspaper.
LUSU runs some of the most vibrant student events throughout the year, from Freshers Fair to the largest inter-varsity sports tournament in Europe - the infamous Roses!
Have your brand feature on event promotions and on-the-day activities.
Customisable packages available, tailored to your brand. Previous extras have included branded reusable cups, and your logo on awards given to students.
