For many students, the Covid-19 pandemic has caused additional financial hardship. Family incomes may have been impacted and holiday and term time work to fund study have been hard to secure. This is causing academically able and motivated students who want to go to university to rethink their plans. Our goal is to raise funds so that despite the impact the pandemic is having on their lives today, these students can continue to pursue the dreams they have for their future.  

Funds raised will go towards scholarships and to help meet costs associated with going to university, such as books, travel and accommodation. As higher education embraces the benefits of technology to improve the learning experience, personal IT equipment, such as a laptop, is now essential. To achieve their goals, our students need resources, support and opportunities to prepare for life after campus. Your donations will help us to help our students to succeed at university and beyond.
