How your support makes difference

Rowan Hart-MB PhD Student

Rowan Hart

I’m so grateful to donors, thanks to them I’m able to focus more on my studies and less on part-time jobs, I’m not having to work 30–40 hours alongside studying.

Tom Cadden-Medicine Student

I doubt I could do it without support. No one could work seven days a week and complete a six-year course and I’m grateful for the opportunity to thank donors for all their help.
