2024 has been a year of change. Shifts in policy have led to economic uncertainty, rises in tuition fees, and an increase in taxation. We know that universities, colleges, and everyone who works with students wants to support them through this time. Which is why we’re here to help. Since 2021, we’ve published an annual report sharing the thoughts, feelings, and experiences from students across the UK about how their finances have impacted their wellbeing. This year’s special fifth anniversary issue is focused on delivering insights to drive practical results - enabling you to help your students to be more effective and efficient in a time of limited budget and high pressure. We’ll be sharing all of our key findings - and how this year’s data reveals trends over the past five years - at an exclusive webinar at 10:30 on Monday 20 January 2025.

For the past four years, we’ve been hearing from students how their financial situation affects their wellbeing. We share their thoughts, feelings, and experiences in our annual Finance and Wellbeing report. While we’re still working our way through the data, we’re worried by some of the responses we’ve received. 💜71% of the students we asked felt hopeless about their situation 💜82% of those asked said they often felt anxious. So we want to share where you - or someone you know - can find support 👇 https://lnkd.in/e7absGgW

This week, Blackbullion was named amongst the TOP 5 most innovative small businesses in the country when it comes to #SocialMobility!! 🤯 Nabbing a spot on Making The Leap's Social Mobility List 2024, in partnership with bp, is a huge win for the company as we look to change the way that businesses and education interact with one another to unlock opportunities for talented learners from lower socioeconomic backgrounds. I am also delighted to see clients like Amazon and Nationwide Building Society, as well as partners like AMS and So-Motive hit the list this year! Plus, shout outs to new pals, and old, like Paige Lauren Izquierdo, David McIntosh Jr., and Grace Osborne for making the Rising Star List!! Congratulations to all of the organisations who made the list this year and... keep up the great work!! 🚀 💪 #EarlyCareers #Talent #HR #Recruitment #EmergingTalent #FutureTalent #AccessAndEncouragement #Award
