Promotional Merchandise for your Student Union

On average, only 11% of students choose to vote in their Student Union elections, and due to the pandemic and remote learning, support for student unions is at its lowest in decades.
 

So what does this mean for your Student Union?

With less support from students, unions will struggle to justify the need for their budget to the universities, resulting in less support from the university themselves. 
 
We believe that student unions are a worthwhile investment for universities and bring students together in a unique way that can’t be done in a classroom.
 

So, what can we do to help?

 
Branded university merchandise improves the sense of community, as well as making a difference to the perceived quality of the university based on these interactions and merchandise.
 
The more support that is earned for the Student Union, it not only means more respect and budget from the university, but also more students attending SU events and visiting SU spaces.
 
Online campaigns like giveaways and competitions can be a great way to get freshers and future students involved with the union and university, and branded university merchandise is the best way to tackle these kinds of campaigns.
 
Showing students that your union can offer more value to their university experience than simply cheap drinks is key to increasing income and awareness.
 
This doesn’t just apply to students. Why not aim to have a bigger presence within your local community? Your union and students can be a symbol of support among your community and branded merchandise is just one step to get your name out there.
 

Student Unions and Wellbeing

 
We know how important wellbeing is, especially for students living and studying at university. They offer a support system for students away from home. You need to be able to offer a range of wellbeing-focussed products to students, and one of the top choices for universities is a ‘wellbeing’ or ‘welcome box’, filled with goodies for your students to know that you’re there and that you care. You can also include information about all the different services that your Student Union offers.
