Visit the travel discounts for more information.
Family friendly
University staff can save 15% on a huge range of baby sleep products with The Gro Company. Our Workplace Nursery Scheme means that you can sacrifice the full cost of your childcare costs if using one of our on-campus nurseries. This means that you are only taxed on your salary after your nursery fees have been deducted. For those using nurseries closer to home or holiday clubs, or sport and activity centres like Activate Sport, you can save with KiddiVouchers!
Motoring
Driven is technology being launched by Kamet Ventures, funded by AXA, designed to take all the inconvenience out of maintaining your car. Their aim is to regulate the entire service, maintenance and repair supply chain. As part of app testing they are offering you £150 off car servicing. Download this great offer here! This is only available to the first 150 customers. Please note that the app is only available on Play store (only for Android devices). However, Driven also has a contact centre in Manchester that can do bookings for those customers that either don't have an Android phone or simply don't want to download the app. The contact centre is open from 9 am to 5 pm Mon-Fri and the landline is 01614570325 (the coupon code DSMR39 is valid also for bookings through the call centre). Halfords also continues to offer significant savings on MOTs and servicing.
