Why PeerLight exists

Why PeerLight exists

PeerLight was created by Kacey after one honest conversation with a student who had already been in her shoes gave her the confidence to take a placement opportunity that changed her future.

She realised that life-changing advice shouldn’t depend on who you happen to know.

PeerLight exists to make placement guidance accessible to everyone, creating a community where students share real experiences, honest advice, and support each other every step of the way.

Built by students, powered by students.
