Who we've helped

The University launched its first major fundraising campaign in 2012. This included the establishment of the University's Development Board. Since then, we have helped improve hundreds of lives for the better. 

The University is dedicated to raising aspirations and promoting social inclusion. Your support, time and money, no matter how large or small makes a huge difference. Thank you to all our supporters who have helped us raise money for our students to create bursaries, scholarships and opportunity awards.
