Bishop Grosseteste University is a special and unique place to study. During your time here, you will have formed a special bond with friends, tutors and with the campus.

As one of our Alumni, you may feel that you would like to get involved with the University or offer your support in some way. This support could be financial, or it could be in an entirely different capacity. We value and appreciate any and all involvement our Alumni have with the University and as such, we have a number of ways in which you can help. Our Alumni Community is made up of some of our greatest advocates.

BGU Foundation Fund

If you are in a position and wish to support our current students’ projects financially, then the BGU Foundation Fund is a great cause. The fund was established by the Alumni of BGU to support projects that enhance the student experience and help make a difference to the lives of other people.

The fund supports a range of projects that demonstrate enrichment during a students’ time at the University. It focuses on projects that cannot be resourced from the University’s main funds, with a number of grants distributed each year to support voluntary work or other innovative, creative, charitable or community-based projects both here in the UK or overseas.

For further information on supporting the Foundation Fund, please contact our Alumni Relations Office via email at alumnirelations@bishopg.ac.uk
