The Tab is one of the biggest youth media sites in Britain and has branches all across the UK, covering every uni city from Cambridge to Newcastle.

A couple of our favourite articles include the piece on when Leeds grad TikToker got £2k of drinks sent to him at Spoons and then got banned from TikTok and our guide to Leeds lingo.
Our recent stories include info on everything Leeds freshers need to know about their halls and Uni of Leeds’ response to this summer’s far-right riots.
But, seriously, why write for us?
Tab graduates have gone on to write for VICE, BBC, Vogue, BuzzFeed, The Times, ITV, The Guardian, The Independent, The Financial Times and more!
