Life-changing skills: 125 fund - University of Birmingham

Our incredible worldwide Birmingham community came together to support life-changing initiatives on our very first Giving Day - Birmingham Gives!

Through your support, you helped to create opportunities for Birmingham students to realise their potential at every step and built vital skills for their careers.

Whether it’s funding a student society, a musical ensemble or buying equipment for a sports club, this fund helps deliver creative, impactful and exciting projects that benefit the student community, and enhance the student experience helping more young people to thrive at Birmingham.

Thanks to support from our University community, I have been able to deliver free first aid training workshops in primary, secondary and sixth form schools across the Midlands region teaching students new skills and hopefully inspiring a passion for medicine like mine.
