The work of the Foundation Board and the Alumni Relations and Development team enable us to make transformational financial contributions to our students, staff and facilities.
It is a vehicle to co-ordinate the raising of philanthropic funds for the University. Helping to open doors and persuade new donors - individuals, business sponsors and charitable trusts - to give generously to us.
"What greater legacy can there be for the county than the establishment of our own university? Important to young and old alike it is a privilege and a pleasure to have an ongoing involvement"
