Our independent student newspaper has launched a funding appeal<\/a> in an attempt to raise money for prints of upcoming editions.<\/p>\n

The Gaudie<\/i> is among Scotland\u2019s oldest student newspapers with more than 1,600 bimonthly editions since 1934, providing a platform for a diverse range of students voices on various issues and topics.<\/p>\n

The newspaper has run into financial difficulties amid rising operating costs and funding cuts.<\/p>\n

The Gaudie<\/i> was awarded Best Design (Newspaper) and Best Use of Digital Media at The Herald Student Press Awards in May 2025, and was named as Scotland’s Best Student Newspaper by the Student Publication Association in 2024.<\/p>\n

The Gaudie<\/i>\u2019s co-Editor-in-Chief Oliver Kennedy said: \u201cWe launched this fundraiser in an attempt to ensure the next edition of our student newspaper can go to print. Diminishing grant funding and increasing operational costs have been difficult to navigate as an independent student newspaper. Any help is greatly appreciated.\u201d<\/p>\n

A previous fundraiser in 2023 raised more than five thousand pounds, ensuring the paper could print for the next two years.<\/p>\n
