Dr Ann Rumpus – Chair of the QHT Grants Committee says:

“The scope and diversity of the projects submitted within the strategic areas never fail to impress and inspire the Grants Committee - as well the categories which overtly underpin the University’s strategic priorities there are 8 additional projects which we have supported. These are continuations of successful projects which have proved to be vitally important in supporting students. These include intermediate and small project pots, which provide funds for which staff, in cooperation with students, to bid for innovative proposals. The width and breadth all the project work helps to spread the distribution of funds to the widest possible audience thus enabling the University and the Quintin Hogg Trust to enhance and embellish the student experience. The Trustees remain convinced that the funding is being used to great effect.”
