The support from Stew Fowie, Chief Operating Officer at SSS, has been tremendous and we are sincerely grateful to Stew, the SSS Team and the students and staff at universities and colleges throughout Scotland who are embracing and promoting our BRIT 2021 Challenge.

"Scottish Student Sport is delighted to partner with The British Inspiration Trust (BRIT) and support this inspiring initiative for students and young adults.


Mental Health and Wellbeing are vitally important aspects of any positive student experience and we applaud BRIT’s efforts to bring both perspiration and inspiration to this key area, through their inclusive BRIT 2021 Challenge.


Being active is one of the best ways to promote good mental health and this campaign and event will help make an impact both locally and nationally – very much in keeping with SSS’ strategic aims.


We look forward to providing visible support to BRIT 2021 Challenge, and hope to see widespread engagement in the event from Student Associations, Sports Unions, Departments and senior management."
