We aim to create an inclusive and diverse environment where students can interact with other UAL students outside of their studies to enhance their university experience. To ensure that inclusion is as low cost as possible for our membership, we are seeking sponsorship from various well-suited partners to collaborate with on both the annual Arts Cup - Varsity Challenge tournament, against local rivals Goldsmiths University in March, and the annual Sports Ball celebration next May.

KING'S COLLEGE LONDON SQUASH CLUB
"I am writing representing King's College London Squash Club, and we would love to have your business sponsoring the club. First, let us tell you a little about ourselves. We are one of the most successful sports clubs at the university, with a thriving membership base. Our courts are located in a prime central London location, as part of the St Thomas' Hospital complex in Waterloo. Our Women's V compete in the British University Championship Squash Premier League (BUCS), and our Men's 1st V compete in South Eastern Division 1A, winning the competition in 2014. Beyond our top teams, our 2nd V and 3rd V participate in BUCS and London University Squash Leagues to a high standard. The standard of squash at the club is extremely high - we are lucky enough to count several county players amongst our members, as well as a former world Top 20 women's player. The recent achievements of the club include winning the prestigious Roehampton tournament two years running, as well as having a winner at the BUCS Singles Championship (the premier university squash competition in the country). Away from competitive squash, we also have a growing social squash section, for players of all abilities to come and learn a fast-paced and exciting sport, with the opportunity to join a sociable and enjoyable society. We hope that you would consider sponsoring us - we have a number of flexible, competitive and appealing sponsorship packages available • Shirt Sponsorship: £150.00 • Hoodie Sponsorship: £150.00 • Banners to be displayed on court: £180.00. The exposure for your business would be wide-ranging - not only would you have exposure to members of the club, but also (depending on your potential choice of package) members of other squash clubs and universities. We compete not only all over London and the south east of the UK, but also all over the country. In addition to this, our courts are used by members of the Guy's King's and St Thomas's Trust, allowing you a medium to advertise to these individuals through your association with us. This would also allow you an opportunity to gain access to the university, which has many campuses in prime central London locations (including the Strand, Waterloo and London Bridge). This exposure within the university would only serve to further increase your reputation among the student population. We hope that you would consider sponsoring us. If you are interested in any of the packages mentioned above, please get in touch". Contact: Anand Krishna. Tel.: 07595206887. E-mail: anand.krishna@kcl.ac.uk

LUMOTORSPORT
LUMotorsport is Loughborough University's Formula Student team. The team design, build and race their own single seat race car against teams from all over the world. In 2012 LUMotorsport attended events at Silverstone in the UK, Red Bull Ring in Austria and Hockenheim in Germany. LUM is made up of a number of students studying various degrees from Automotive Engineering to Finance and Business Management. Unlike other Formula Student teams, LUMotorsport is entirely organised and run by the student team members, with guidance from the academic and technical staff only when required. This means that the team is responsible not only for producing a brand new car every year but also for all finances, health and safety, as well as the business side of running a motorsport team. This tough task is made even more difficult by the fact that all of the work must be done around the team members' ongoing degree courses. "This year will be LUMotorsport's tenth competitive car and our aim is to become the top UK university competing and to achieve a top ten ranking in the Formula Student Series Competition. In order to achieve this target, a number of new innovative ideas are being implemented, including a new, lightweight, cast aluminium modular rear end to support all drivetrain components and rear suspension; new CBR600RR engine with extensive development into a fuel-efficient map and incorporating a new intake, sump and exhaust; and the implementation of a new electronics system which includes dynamic data acquisition, communications and information system, traction control, launch control and paddle shift system. LUMotorsport welcomes all types of sponsorship, ranging from direct financial support to technical assistance. Benefits include placing a logo on the LFS12 car; but, more importantly, an opportunity to be directly associated with some of the most talented young engineers in the country and have exclusive access to potential graduate recruits. In the past, many of our sponsors have benefitted from this contact and have taken on some very valued employees. To develop this graduate interest, we encourage sponsors to visit us whenever possible, both at the university and on track. All of this helps to generate a great team spirit, not to mention the opportunity to see the students at work and acquire some useful contacts in this diverse and stimulating environment. For more information about the team, please visit our website". Contact: Marcus Naylor. Address: LUMotorsport, Steward Muller Building, Loughborough University, Loughborough, Leicestershire LE11 3TU.

THE SHEFFIELD COLLEGE: CENTRE FOR THE CREATIVE INDUSTRIES
Work has commenced on a £15.6 million Sheffield College upgrade. The investment will lead to new facilities and courses linked to areas of growth for the regional economy. £10 million of this project is being used to redevelop the college's Hillsborough campus into a specialist centre for Theatre, Dance & Performing Arts, Creative & Digital Media and Art & Design. It is due to be opened in September 2015 and will be known as the Centre for the Creative Industries.

For example, in addition to enhancing the learning environment for students undertaking our established range of performing arts courses, this equipment would enable us to widen our curriculum to offer courses which focus on 'back stage' and associated technical roles. Since Sheffield has the largest theatre complex in the country outside of London, this would help us to fill a growing, regional and national skills gap. We are training the next generation of talent in sectors identified for growth and working with employers to offer great careers opportunities to our students".

UNIVERSITY OF NORTHAMPTON
Businesses throughout the Midlands and beyond are already starting to benefit from having a fully-fledged University in their midst. When the former UCN recently achieved full research degree awarding powers as The University of Northampton, many opportunities were created for companies, organisations and individuals to participate in the year of celebrations that is following the inauguration. Any business can now take advantage of a programme of integrated sponsorship, and in so doing will gain both a commercial advantage and the chance to build lasting relationships with customers and influencers associated with the new University. A wide range of sponsorship arrangements has been established that will allow everyone to participate in this initiative, with the benefits to business only really limited by imagination. In addition to packages (Bronze, Silver & Gold), the University is keen to look at bespoke arrangements that would enable the sponsorship benefits to be tailored to the requirements of the relevant business or individual. Examples of the areas available for involvement include VIP Dinners, Open Days, School/Faculty Launches, Masterclasses, Conferences, Celebrity Guest Presentations, Summer Events, Fashion Shows, Printed Media, Student Filofax/Campus Guide, Buildings, etc. The benefits to participating organisations are significant and can include website links, logos on appropriate University literature, membership of the Supporters organisation, attendance at VIP events with the Vice Chancellor, tickets to other suitable events, access to 10,000+ students and 1,200+ staff, an enhanced business profile as a recognised supporter of the University, incorporation into media exposure that is growing all the time, etc. Contributions for elements of the sponsorship opportunities can start from as little as £2,000 and go right up to £100,000+ for major infrastructure projects that may attract the larger national company. There is effectively an opportunity for everyone, and sponsors are encouraged to act now to secure the best for their business, organisation or circumstance. The University has appointed an agency to manage initial enquiries, and interested parties are asked to contact them in the first instance on 01604 497779. Contact: Geoff Morgan, Director.

UNIVERSITY OF SHEFFIELD DEBATING SOCIETY
Sheffield Debating is a fun, free forum, which is open to all for students to express their ideas and opinions. The working committee enjoys getting involved with their city and using their skills to benefit others in the wider community. They also attend many inter-varsity debating competitions across the country. By sponsoring Sheffield Debating, the sponsor will be putting their brand name in front of the young professionals of tomorrow, a market of clients who will seek the best in job opportunities and consumables. Further to this future benefit, the sponsor's name will be advertised across campus and become associated with the Society and the community work which it carries out. Debating provides the groundwork for an active engagement in society, inspiring confidence and encouraging attention to detail and the ability to formulate logical and coherent arguments under pressure. Contact: Angharad Evans. Address: 65 Roebuck Road, Crookesmoore, Sheffield S6 3GQ.
