The LivingWell Health Club based at the Deansgate Hilton within the iconic Beetham Tower has updated their offer. All University of Manchester staff qualify for their public sector discount rate which is just £32pm.   

Travel

Why not take a romantic break this month and relax.

Entertainment

If you’re heading to London and taking in a show, then WestendTheatre.com has great savings for you on a wide range of shows including The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night Time, Wicked, True West and Fiddler on the Roof. 

New Blackwell’s University Bookshop

Blackwell’s has been in touch to announce that their brand new bookshop will be opening on Wednesday 20th February at University Green. They want to thank you for your support whilst they've been in the Portakabin, and want to welcome you to visit them in their new home! They are still in the PortaKabin until then so you can still save 10% when showing your Staff ID card. They have a great range of cards and gifts as well as books!

Home

You can save an extra 17% off this February using the latest discount code for the Hotpoint Privilege Club. This is a popular offer and a happy member of staff shared back how pleased they were to get a discounted new fridge within 48 hours of ordering, even during last week’s snowy weather conditions. And, their old device was removed too.

Hair and beauty

Check out the savings with spas, hair and beauty salons to treat yourself or a loved one.
