Stop scrolling, start writing: The Edinburgh Tab wants you

Fancy trying out a new skill? Or updating your CV? Or even just joining a super fun (hot) community of writers? Join The Edinburgh Tab! No prior experience necessary.

Come along to our open meeting in Room G.01 in 50 George Square at 5pm this Friday! We welcome all students of an Edinburgh based university – Napier. Heriot Watt students, we’re looking at you.

What is The Tab?

The Tab has something for every student, from students; from breaking news to covering fun features, there are so many opportunities for anyone who chooses to write for us.

From Cambridge to Birmingham, every uni city has a Tab, and The Tab Edinburgh is one of the biggest. We posses over 22k followers on Instagram as well as student readers – an ideal way to get your work out there.

Recent stories include reporting on Shia LaBeouf ‘squaring up’ to Edinburgh local after night out in Cowgate, and Edinburgh Uni saying Jewish students could be investigated for liking pro-Palestine posts.

Our recent features include The ultimate guide to conquering dry January as an Edinburgh student and Edinburgh’s best student deals. 

Why should you write for The Tab?

As a writer for The Tab Edinburgh, your stories will be seen by thousands of readers across the country – perfect for a budding journalist. There is no pressure – write however much you want whenever you want, and there is no added stress during exam season!

Our editorial team will work with you to coach and improve your writing – experience does not matter. Plus, the team will work alongside an Assistant Editor based at the London HQ, who will provide training and advice that isn’t available anywhere else.
