Organised Fun

What Organised Fun does

Organised Fun (legal entity: Organised Fun Consultancy Ltd, registered in England and Wales, company number 14096524) is a UK-based boutique consultancy founded in 2019 by Rosie Hunnam, a former NUS Student Opportunities Consultant. The firm helps students' unions and universities deliver more inclusive, impactful, and safe student opportunities through three interlocking offerings: scheduled training courses (Student Opportunities 101 at £90 per person online, Risky Business at £300 per person in-person with Howden, and Anti-racist Student Opportunities training co-designed with Make Diversity Count), bespoke consultancy engagements priced at approximately £600 per day, and the Student Opportunities Managers Network (SOMN), a community of 100-plus practitioners run via digital meetings and a WhatsApp chat.

The company has no proprietary technology platform; its core IP is human expertise, branded frameworks (Student Opportunities Framework Reviews), a free resource library, and a published research output — the Safe Adventures report (March 2026) — produced through a consortium model in which 16 students' unions collectively funded a year-long collaborative project supported by Howden and NUS Charity. A 9-month Implementing Safe Adventures consultancy programme monetises the report across institutions.

Revenue is generated entirely through professional services: per-attendee training fees, daily consultancy rates, and consortium-funded research projects. Go-to-market is hybrid — direct sales to students' unions and universities, community-led acquisition through SOMN, and conference presence. The firm operates solely within the United Kingdom with 8 employees. The National Societies & Volunteering Awards (NSVAs), historically a paid awards programme co-delivered with Student Hubs, was paused for the 2024 academic year to address scalability challenges.

Direct peers

• AMOSSHE: The UK membership body for Student Services heads in higher education. Provides professional development, networking, and sector learning for university student experience staff - directly adjacent to Organised Fun's target buyers and training catalogue.
• Student Minds: UK charity that delivers training, consultancy, and resources to students' unions and universities on student mental health and wellbeing. Founder Rosie Hunnam previously led sector improvement work there. Direct overlap in audience (SU staff), delivery model (training + consultancy), and sector positioning.
• Student Hubs: UK charity running student volunteering and social action programmes with partner universities and students' unions. Co-delivered the National Societies & Volunteering Awards with Organised Fun and operates in the same student opportunities / societies ecosystem with comparable B2B/B2SU service offerings.
• The Centre (sabbatical officer training): Provider of training and development for students' union sabbatical officers and staff in the UK. Alvin Ramsamy is an Associate Trainer there. Overlaps directly with Organised Fun on SU staff and officer training delivery, audience, and curriculum.
• sparc (Student Participation and Research Centre): Works with UK higher education providers on student engagement, representation, and partnerships. Comparable target audience (SU and university staff) and similar consultancy/research-led service model for student experience outcomes.
• Make Diversity Count: UK EDI consultancy that co-designed and co-delivers the Anti-racist Student Opportunities & University Sport training with Organised Fun. Directly comparable as a specialist training provider selling into UK universities and the SU/uni sport sector.

Others

• Wonkhe: UK higher education media, events, and insights platform that produces research, briefings, and convenes sector professionals. Adjacent in audience (SU and university decision-makers) and content (sector commentary), enabling potential overlap in research/insight offerings.
• HEPI (Higher Education Policy Institute): UK higher education think tank producing research and policy analysis consumed by university leaders and sector bodies. Adjacent in audience and research-driven content format but does not directly compete for SU training/consultancy budgets.

Broad incumbents

• National Union of Students (NUS): UK-wide sector body for students' unions that also develops training, research, and policy resources for SU staff and officers. Operates at a much larger scale and broader scope than Organised Fun, but overlaps on training (powers Student Opportunities 101) and sector-level convening.
• Advance HE: UK member-led organisation delivering professional development, training, and consultancy across higher education. Operates at much greater scale and across the full HE workforce, but competes for the same training and consultancy budgets from UK universities and SU parent bodies.
