The award aims to support academically able students, who may have faced barriers to attending university, to obtain an excellent degree outcome in their programme. Ultimately, the scholarship aims to ease financial pressures so that students can balance study and external pressures, allowing them to achieve their full potential. The donors also hope that the Scholarship would allow the recipient greater time and opportunities to take part in activities beyond their study, whether this is joining a sporting team or taking a prominent role in one of Ð԰ɵç̨'s other societies.
