The University’s Vice Chancellor, Robert Allison, presented the cheques at the ceremony held earlier this week.
Stakeholders Relations Manager, Alison Barlow, was also present at the ceremony. She commented: “We’re thrilled to have supported staff once again through the University’s Inside Out Fund. A lot of our staff are involved in some fantastic community groups and voluntary causes outside of their daily jobs, it’s important for us as a University to acknowledge this and take time to help and reward them.”
