At Brookes Sport & Active Wellness, we believe that financial circumstances should never be a barrier to taking part in sport and physical activity.
University is a great time to try new activities, meet new people and look after your physical and mental wellbeing. Through Together Active, we're committed to making sport and active wellness as accessible and affordable as possible, so cost doesn't stop you from getting involved.
Explore the financial support, discounted memberships and flexible options available to help you stay active while you study.
Students in receipt of the maximum Oxford Brookes bursary may be eligible for additional financial support through our Sport & Active Wellness Bursary Support Scheme.
Support currently includes:
Free Off-Peak Fitness Membership
Student Sport Membership Support Fund
These initiatives are designed to help more students access the benefits of sport and physical activity, regardless of their financial circumstances.

There are lots of ways to get active at Oxford Brookes without spending lots of money.
Some of our opportunities include:
Wellness Wednesdays (free gym access on Wednesdays for students, all year round)
We'll continue to add more opportunities to this list as and when they become available.
Oxford Brookes students benefit from discounted Sport & Active Wellness memberships, making it more affordable to access our facilities and activities throughout the year.
Whether you're looking to use the gym regularly, attend fitness classes or climb, there's a membership option to suit a range of budgets and lifestyles.
Not everyone wants, or needs, a membership. If you're looking for a more flexible way to stay active, our Hoppers provide a cost-effective alternative.
Choose from our:
Gym Hopper
Fitness Class Hopper
Racket Sports Hopper
Each of our student Hoppers costs £60 and includes 12 sessions, which can be used over 12 months. This gives you the flexibility to stay active at your own pace, without committing to a membership.
Hoppers are ideal if you:
Commute to university and aren't on campus every day.
Have a busy or changing timetable.
Want the flexibility to exercise around your studies, work or placements.
Prefer not to commit to a membership.
Only want to pay for the sessions you'll use.
Whether you're looking to use the gym, attend fitness classes or enjoy a game of badminton or squash with your friends, Hoppers make it easier to stay active in a way that suits your lifestyle.
Help Us Improve
We're always looking for ways to make sport and active wellness more accessible.
