The ßÏßÏÊÓÆµ Fund
From hardship bursaries and scholarships, to enhancing the student experience and research development, every penny donated to the ßÏßÏÊÓÆµ Fund goes directly to those who need it most.

At ßÏßÏÊÓÆµ, we believe education should be a force for social justice and opportunity. Every year, thousands of talented students arrive on campus full of ambition and curiosity. But for many, financial hardship or lack of access threaten to derail their dreams.
The ßÏßÏÊÓÆµ Fund is our answer to this challenge. It provides targeted support where it’s needed most:
- Hardship Bursaries – to help keep students in education during times of crisis
- Scholarships for forced migrants and care experienced students – to open doors to learning and provide opportunities that would otherwise be out of reach
- Sports Scholarships – to enable student athletes to train, compete and succeed at the highest levels
- Study and career enhancing opportunities for all students – to empower students to thrive above and beyond their studies
- Support where it’s needed most – to act swiftly to support students facing extraordinary challenges.
Together, we can keep the ßÏßÏÊÓÆµ spirit alive: opening doors to education and empowering students to flourish.
Why your support matters
The need has never been greater. Rising living costs and limited student finance mean more students are struggling to afford essentials like rent, food and books. Thanks to alumni donations we currently fund hundreds of students through hardship bursaries, scholarships and unique initiatives to support students both at university and in their future careers.
