New students can claim a complimentary breakfast at stores nationwide during freshers’ week.
Bakery79, a family-run bakery chain with 15 stores across the UK, is providing new university students with a free breakfast bap during freshers’ week. The offer is available to students at its stores nationwide, spanning from Bournemouth to Dundee, and is limited to 100 free breakfast baps per store while stocks last.
Students can choose from options including bacon, sausage, omelette, and veggie sausage baps. To claim their complimentary breakfast, individuals simply need to visit a participating Bakery79 store and present a valid student ID or proof of enrollment.
The giveaway coincides with thousands of young people embarking on their university journey, a period when research indicates 61% of students experience homesickness during their initial weeks. Financial concerns are also prominent, with 73% of students reportedly worried about the cost of living before arriving at university.

Hemant Tandon, co-founder of the bakery, commented on the initiative, stating: “Starting university is a huge milestone, but those first few weeks away from home can also be pretty daunting.
