The impact of giving can't be described in just pounds and pence. It's in the thriving futures created for our students, and the successful partnerships we develop.
Funding helps our graduates finish their degrees, and go on to forge fulfilling careers. But we rely heavily on the goodwill of companies who share our vision. We work to make sure your donation goes exactly where it is needed, and keep you up to date about the impact it's having. Once they graduate, the talented people you help will join the workforce.
It's a win-win situation for both business and students alike.
Contact the Fundraising team to find out more, or to work with us.

Thorntons is one of the largest Scottish legal firms. The firm have supported our students in different ways for many years. It's a reciprocal partnership that keeps on growing.
Law students benefit from a scholarship that combines funding and career advice, giving them an edge in getting their first job after graduation. They have also learnt huge amounts from work placements.

Many companies fund a prize to encourage the brightest students to excel. Here is just one example of a local company working closely with us.
