£10,000 up for grabs with Santander’s Brighter Futures Grants

We’re excited to announce the return of the Brighter Futures Grants programme in partnership with Santander, with grants of £1,000 to give away to 10 Surrey students. 

You could use the funds towards accommodation or bills to help with the cost of living, or you could spend it on a new laptop or tablet. It's up to you! 

All students are eligible, including both undergraduate and postgraduate, part-time and full-time. Share with your course mates, housemates and friends and apply before 11pm on Thursday 15 May 2025 for your chance to win. You don't need to bank with Santander to apply.
