We know the rising cost of living is putting significant pressure on students, with rent being one of the biggest financial challenges.
At Handshake, we're dedicated to supporting every student in building the career they dream of—no matter where they come from. That's why we're introducing this campaign: to help you keep your career aspirations ‘live rent free’ in your mind, without the worry of rent holding you back.
What’s the Live Rent Free campaign about?
We’re giving 20 UK students the chance to win £3K each, with a total prize fund of £60K. This money can help cover your rent, support your career development, or fund your passion projects—so you can focus on what really matters.
By joining Handshake, you’ll unlock access to a platform built for the next generation of talent—connecting you with jobs, internships, and career opportunities tailored to your skills and aspirations. And the best part? It’s completely free to enter.
