Newcastle University

Fingers Creative Trip is a company set up by students for students.

The business was set up by 5 Business School students during the Business Enterprise module that they were undertaking as part oftheir studies. The company aims to encourage international students to go out and see the 'real' UK, rather than stay within the confinements of their campus environment.

This has been achieved through organising exciting themed away days, such as:

• Christmas Shopping in Manchester

• Pressure Release Trip to Edinburgh

• Cultural Exploration Trip to York

• Meditation Trip to the Lake District

• Adventurous Trip to Alton Towers

The students, who are all studying Masters degrees in Arts, Business and Creativity or Innovation, Creativity and Entrepreneurship, have been so successful with their venture in the Newcastle area that they are now planning to expand the brand across the UK.

The team were also runners up in the Cultural and Creativity award at the University’s recent Enterprise Challenge Awards.
