Worthing College partners with Southern Rail to offer students huge discount of up to 70% on train travel
Students from Worthing College are now able to benefit from an exclusive Unizone ticket offered by Southern, which lands students up to 70 per cent off their train fare.
They now join students from Brighton Metropolitan College, Northbrook College and Chichester College, who can now benefit from the special ticket, joining those from several participating institutions who already qualify for the Unizone.
The two Unizone areas in Sussex, in Brighton and Worthing, together cover routes between Chichester and Eastbourne. The ticket offers unlimited discounted travel between college, home, and places to catch up with friends and family.
All that’s needed is a valid student ID from a participating college and a 16-17 Saver or 16-25 Railcard for the Unizone ticket – which can be bought at any ticket office within the Unizone area. Physical NUS Extra and TOTUM cards are also accepted.
Vicki Illingworth, Executive Principal and Deputy Chief Executive of the Chichester College Group, said:
“We’re delighted that students across our colleges can now take advantage of Southern’s Unizone tickets. This initiative is a real game-changer – making travel more affordable, accessible, and sustainable for our learners.
“Reliable, cost-effective transport is essential for supporting education and creating opportunities for our students. By working together with Southern Rail, we’re helping to remove barriers and ensure that our students can make the most of their time at college and beyond.”
Louis Rambaud, Chief Customer Officer at Southern added:
“Our Unizone fares are a brilliant deal for young people travelling to learn, meet friends or explore the south coast.
“They offer a whopping discount on regular fares, and I think rail really is the best way to get around the south coast quickly and comfortably, while doing your bit for the planet too.”
It’s important that students have a ticket before getting on the train, and carry the right passes for their ticket. To find out more, please click here.
