Why we love Waterstones
Hannah Parsons
Head of Product Marketing
Waterstones is one of those brands that just gets it. They properly champion books and reading culture — the staff picks, the cosy cafés, the events. We love that students get a discount that actually makes a dent in those reading list costs, especially when textbooks alone can eat through a maintenance loan. It's a partnership that backs learning in the best way.
