AN OXFORD Brookes student from the School of Architecture has won investment after competing in University Alliance’s national Enterprise Stars competition.

The University Alliance ran its annual alliance-wide showcase and a competition earlier this month to attract investment for student start-ups.

Sophia Bannert, studying MArchD Applied Design in Architecture at Brookes, was one of three winners.

She scooped £1,000 for her Bee-Able app which aims to transform cities into places of equality and inclusivity, whether people are wheelchair users or visually impaired.
