The Vice-Chancellor visits our student fundraising callers
From monthly direct debits of £10 to traditional community fundraising events and one-off donations to buy a set of Christmas cards or sponsor a rider in the Life Cycle rides, I believe our alumni, friends, students and staff are enjoying being offered a way to play their own part in our Campaign. One of the most enjoyable ways to give was the free Summer Symphony in the Park event this summer, supported by your generous gifts through Cascade, which raised an impressive £2,000 for Young Carers and Young Adult Carers.
Earlier this year, the Ross-CASE Survey from the National Centre for Social Research revealed that philanthropic giving to UK higher education was up 14% in 2011-12 to a record amount of £774 million. Our University was rightly singled out for praise for having received the largest corporate gift outside Oxbridge, the £12 million gift from GlaxoSmithKline to establish the GlaxoSmithKline Carbon Neutral Laboratory for Sustainable Chemistry. We also received a special mention for receiving our largest ever single gift from an alumnus which came from Law graduate David Ross in the form of a £2.1 million gift from The David Ross Foundation for our Nottingham Potential programme. These largest signature gifts have contributed hugely to the ongoing success of Impact: The Nottingham Campaign, which we launched two years ago. They are already starting to have a transformative effect and will change lives for ever. More than £98 million has now been raised by the Campaign towards our target of £150 million. But the Ross-CASE Survey also highlighted the fact that increasing numbers of alumni nationally are making a donation to their former university. This is an equally powerful dimension to our Campaign and one which gives me enormous pleasure. The increase in the overall number of donors from a cross section of our friends right across our communities, nationally and internationally, has been a key factor in our success so far. In the year before we launched the Campaign 2,200 individuals, trusts and companies made a gift. Our figure for the year just gone was more than 4,100.
Many of you have responded positively to our student fundraising callers. I always make a point of visiting them during their regular calling periods, both to encourage and hopefully inspire them but also to listen to what they have to say and to the feedback from their conversations with you. As a result of our calling campaigns this year more than 1,000 alumni made a gift, raising a total of £167,451, so thank you for your tremendous support on the phones. Overall, this means more donors than ever are renewing their commitment and we have 100% more donors from outside the UK than last year. With your help we have made an impressive start to Impact: The Nottingham Campaign in our first two years, but with the initial excitement of the launch over, I am acutely aware that this is where the really hard work begins. We shall need many more gifts, both large and small, if we are to reach our £150 million target and ensure we continue changing lives and shaping the future on a global scale. This Review will give you a flavour of our work over the last 12 months and I hope you enjoy reading about the impact of our Campaign. Thank you for all that you have achieved with us so far. Best Wishes,
David Greenaway Vice-Chancellor, The University of Nottingham

A message from the Campaign Co-Chairs
Campaign themes
As Co-Chairs we have taken great pride in the two years since the launch of Impact: The Nottingham Campaign which have seen us achieve major milestones and firsts in fundraising at The University of Nottingham. Signature gifts and increased levels of donor participation have led the way. What is even more pleasing is that they have come from a variety of sources, including global healthcare company GlaxoSmithKline, The David Ross Foundation, a charitable trust in honour of a successful Nottingham businessman, Haydn Green, the US Embassy and from one of the University’s closest friends and supporters, Keith Hamill, the former President of University Council, whom we are delighted to welcome on to the Campaign Board.
Impact: The Nottingham Campaign will raise £150 million in philanthropic support across five strategic themes by 2016. At the end of the second year of the public phase we are around two thirds of the way towards our total having raised over £98 million. The Campaign themes are:
Coupled with the receipt of the largest ever corporate and individual alumni gifts here in Nottingham, the Campaign has also spread its wings to our international campuses. The establishment of an educational foundation at The University of Nottingham Ningbo China and progress to establish a foundation at The University of Nottingham Malaysia will take the Campaign global and ensure its reach and impact will be felt at our pioneering international campuses, something which neither of us could have imagined in our days at Nottingham.
It was with great sadness that we received news this year of the passing of Campaign Board member and Nottingham alumnus Ron Haylock (Chemical Engineering 1968). His wisdom, enthusiasm and experience in fundraising, and also the example he set to so many others in being such a tremendous benefactor, will be sorely missed. We may be widening our focus but our goal remains the same, to raise £150 million, to change lives, to shape the future and to have a global impact. We are well on the way. If you share just a fraction of the pride and admiration we have for this University we are sure you will want to join us on this journey of transformation. To our current donors we give you our heartfelt thanks. To others, we urge you to be part of the Impact Campaign today to share in the excitement of new discoveries and experience the joy of enabling others to achieve. Jeff Randall and David Ross Co-Chairs of Impact: The Nottingham Campaign Board

Entrepreneurship and The Haydn Green Charitable Trust Encouraging innovation and growth Five years ago the University was the first ever recipient of the Times Higher Entrepreneurial University of the Year Award. The judges praised the ‘breadth and depth’ of our entrepreneurial activity and said the University was ‘committed to nurturing the most enterprising and globally-minded graduates in British higher education’. Entrepreneurialism has long been embedded at The University and the Business School has pioneered entrepreneurship teaching and research through the University of Nottingham Institute for Enterprise and Innovation (UNIEI), which we established in 2000 and has now been renamed The Haydn Green Institute for Innovation and Entrepreneurship in honour of the endowment. Dr Vince Cable MP with Hardev Singh and Professor Nathu Puri DL
The Institute is one of the leading centres in Europe for the development of enterprise skills in the next generation of entrepreneurs. Languages student Liz Radice meets Dr Vince Cable MP
The £1.5 million gift from The Haydn Green Charitable Trust was given in memory of successful Nottingham businessman Haydn Carrick Green, whose entrepreneurial flair brought innovative financial products to the market. The gift is promoting innovation and entrepreneurship at The University of Nottingham. Dean of the Nottingham University Business School, Professor Martin Binks, describes the long-term impact this generosity will have as it inspires the worldleading entrepreneurs of tomorrow.
The resources generated by this gift will enable the Institute, the Business School, and the University to broaden and deepen the development of entrepreneurial skills that are so important in today’s economy. This will encourage innovation and growth in the short, medium, and long term both regionally and nationally. The endowment will allow the Institute to build its education programmes and research to benefit both students and the regional business community, meeting a key Government agenda by helping to develop entrepreneurial skills. Our entrepreneurship education includes a popular MBA in Entrepreneurship, numerous cross-disciplinary MSc Entrepreneurship programmes at the University, as well as thriving undergraduate entrepreneurship programmes in the UK, China and Malaysia that involve the support of business people and entrepreneurs who mentor hundreds of Nottingham undergraduates every year. Dr Vince Cable MP, Secretary of State for Business Innovation & Skills, joined special guests of the Trust at a celebration event earlier this year when the gift was presented to the University by trustee Hardev Singh. Entrepreneurial students are nurtured at Nottingham. The Institute is one of the leading centres in Europe for the development of enterprise skills in the next

generation of entrepreneurs. It works with a high profile network of senior academics and researchers from around the world. It offers practical business services through its EnterpriseLab, which provides entrepreneurial students with business advice and mentoring, help with planning, and surgeries on finance, marketing, intellectual property, taxation and funding. It also offers free shared office space and allows students to use the EnterpriseLab for their business. This gift will build and develop that work in the years to come. The beneficiaries of the Trust’s gift are likely to be people like Steve Jones a Nottingham PhD student studying Plant Science. Steve has secured rights to the most suitable strain of Quinoa for cultivating in Britain and has successfully completed a number of field trials. It’s an extremely healthy cous cous-like grain and despite rising demand, there is currently no source of British grown quinoa. Steve holds exclusive rights to growing UK strains and is already in talks with supermarkets. His business won our annual Student Venture Challenge this year, a University competition, which is run by The Haydn Green Institute for Enterprise and Innovation, open to all students, and intended to help them explore their business ideas. Steve also represented Nottingham as a finalist in the Santander Entrepreneurship Awards and he was a recipient of an entrepreneurial grant. Another young entrepreneur, who attended the celebration marking the Trust’s gift and was a finalist in the same challenge competition, is undergraduate languages student Liz Radice. Her company, Backstage Balkans, provides single and multi-day excursions for visitors to various music festivals. The company has traded for the last couple of summers while Liz was still a student and she now hopes to develop the business further since graduation this year. www.backstagebalkans.co.uk Tom Gallagher has just graduated after completing a BEng Hons course in Mechanical Engineering. He is in the process of developing a compact, highly portable seat suitable for various applications including for use by festival goers and for corporate entities who need to provide additional seating capacity at short notice. His compact foldable chair folds down to the size of three DVDs in a stack. Tom is using his second place prize money from the University challenge competition to further develop the concept under his company name Kompact Designs, with the aim of manufacturing the product if he can raise sufficient finance. http://kompactdesigns.com/

Stroke Rehabilitation
“I really did think in those early days that the best thing would be for me to die. How wrong can you be? What’s happened to me since has been absolutely unbelievable.” Those are the words of 77-year-old Ossie Newell MBE, who, following a stroke 13 years ago, has worked tirelessly to regain his quality of life. We work closely with stroke survivors like Ossie in determining our research priorities at The University of Nottingham. Unfortunately, Ossie’s remarkable recovery is the exception rather than the rule.
Life after stroke
Stroke rehabilitation research is my lifelong passion. Stroke not only affects individuals in a cruel and often devastating way but has a significant impact on the lives of their carers and friends. I have been working in this area for the whole of my career and have seen the positive impact that our research can make on individual’s lives. It is fabulous to know that our work is helping shape the services and treatments that stroke survivors and their families receive.
Stroke is the commonest cause of death after cancer and heart disease. Around 130,000 people suffer a stroke every year. A third will die; a third will make a full recovery; a third will suffer serious disability. No age group is immune – an average of six children under 16 suffers a stroke each week. The team I lead is leading the way in stroke rehabilitation research. We’ve got some rising stars at this University and we’re already acknowledged as a centre of excellence for our work but we want to expand, to be bigger and better. Our work addresses the often neglected needs of stroke survivors following hospital care, and the need for stroke specialist provision of rehabilitation at home. Although most people survive, stroke is the single largest cause of disability in a community setting. Survivors frequently struggle with: • mobility • speech • depression • cognitive problems • activities of daily living like feeding and dressing
Ossie Newell MBE talks with a fellow stroke survivor
Professor Marion Walker MBE was a new recruit this year to the Vice-Chancellor’s Life Cycle, a bike ride of more than 1,100 miles taking in the capital cities of the UK and Republic of Ireland in order to raise £300,000 for Stroke Rehabilitation Research. As Professor of Stroke Rehabilitation and despite having not ridden a bike for 40 years, Marion was determined to show that there really is . . . life after stroke
6
The Life Cycle ride has raised the profile of our research and spread the word that stroke rehabilitation research is a really important area for further development. As a direct result of the Impact Campaign activities we were able to hold a unique event at the East Midlands Conference Centre this summer. The lay conference attracted more than 100 stroke survivors, their carers, families and others with an interest in stroke. It was organised by representatives of the Nottingham Stroke Consumer Group in collaboration with the Stroke Rehabilitation colleagues at the University. It was a wonderful day, we showcased our research, explored patients’ attitudes towards it and how they can shape and get involved with it. Stroke is the main cause of adult disability in the UK and the role of rehabilitation is to improve quality of life for people. It’s about making sure our research is focused on areas that are important to patients and their carers, because it’s a very bleak time in the aftermath of stroke and people struggle quite badly as a result. Anything our research can do to improve functional performance, functional ability in our patients, reducing the strain on carers and lessening the financial impact on social services – these are all major drivers. Basically, improving the quality of life for those with stroke.
Professor Marion Walker MBE preparing for Life Cycle
If you have any doubts about the importance of our research and supporting what we’re trying to do I’ll leave the last words to Ossie, a man who is passionate about stroke rehabilitation research. Rehabilitation has taken him from wanting to die to loving life again. Ossie has taken a positive approach to all the great things he has done in the 13 years since his stroke. And he believes: "Truth be told, all those things would not have happened to me had I not been ill, had I not recovered the way I did, and none of that would’ve been possible without research in the past from people I don’t know, whom I’ve never met. That’s why I’m so passionate about research.” To find out how you can support Stroke Rehabilitation Research visit www.nottingham.ac.uk/ impactcampaign/strokerehabilitation And it’s not too late to support Professor Walker and the Life Cycle 3 team’s stroke rehab fundraising www.nottingham.ac.uk/lifecycle

Cascade Funding transformative student projects
"Getting involved in this project has been one of the best and most enriching things I have ever done" Alix Hattenstone, New Theatre member
Cascade supports projects which enhance the skills, confidence, social awareness and employability of students, while making a significant impact on communities, both locally and globally. Cascade awards are made to projects that will enrich the lives of our students and people across the world. Cascade has been created thanks to donations from the University’s community of alumni, students, parents and staff. All awards are decided by a panel of donors.
Outgoing Students’ Union President Amos Teshuva gives a students’ eye view of Cascade’s impact this year.
As you probably already know, going to university is not just about the degree you study for. It’s about so much more than that; it’s about growing as a person, developing your skills and then learning to use those skills to help others. The University of Nottingham is a place that really encourages you to do that and it’s great to be a part of. The money and time you put into Cascade not only helps develop our students, it contributes to the development of our communities and others all over the world. And for me, the idea that former students, who had a life changing experience here, are supporting current students to share the same experience is a really powerful message. For University of Nottingham students Cascade is a really exciting fund supporting their very impressive projects - from building a fully functional health centre in Uganda, to the Veterinary School in the local community and the upgrade of the student radio station URN and the New Theatre on University Park – some amazing projects are being undertaken. Nottingham students have a great track record in terms of their charitable works, not just through Cascade, but also through Karnival, the Students' Union's charitable organisation, which raised £1.6 million this year, more than any other student group in Europe. 8
The student body is a large contributor to the University’s guiding principle of engaging with our communities locally, nationally and internationally and Cascade allows that to happen. It’s such an important source of funding because it allows student groups to make a difference to people’s lives and without it many people would fail to see the benefits of engaging with our students. Nottingham’s a great place to learn but I think there’s a culture here which encourages students to open their minds to the fact that they cannot only learn but do things for other people which will be very rewarding. Our volunteering centre has the highest number of student volunteers compared to any other Russell Group university. More than 4,000 students got involved this year in local projects, many of them in schools. For example, the student radio station URN has helped the Samworth Academy set up its own school radio station. Maybe alumni don’t see this kind of impact as obviously as we do but by supporting our students you’re helping them support others and helping the students themselves to develop. The experiences our students gain from their involvement in Karnival, Cascade, volunteering and the many clubs and societies means that Nottingham creates great graduates. But without the funding and generosity of the University alumni and supporters it just wouldn’t happen in the way it does. So thank you to all who have donated to the Cascade fund.

Cascade Funding transformative student projects
Over the past year Cascade-funded activity has been many and varied and the impact of its support has been felt locally and globally. Since the fund began more than six years ago, Cascade has raised nearly £1.3million to help support almost 150 projects. Student actors, young carers, dementia sufferers and undergraduate engineers are just some of the people to benefit recently from the generous support of donors to our University. Here’s a flavour of this year’s activities: Students at The University of Nottingham swept the boards at national media awards this year, after the student magazine, radio station, television channel and theatre all picked up gongs. And almost all of them have been supported by our alumni through Cascade. Impact Magazine secured the Ones to Watch Student Publication of the Year, URN collected the Best Station prize at the National Student Radio Awards and the New Theatre picked up seven awards at the National Student Drama Festival. To complete the set, Nottingham University Television Station (NUTS) was crowned Best Broadcaster at the National Student Television Association (NaSTA).
opportunity to explore the play, which is a set text, and even direct the cast. More than 1,200 people saw the production during its six performance run. Shona Powell, Director at Lakeside, said: “The members of New Theatre involved in Lysistrata gained direct experience of working with a professional director, lighting designer, company stage manager, education consultant, theatre designer and marketing team. The production was targeted at A-Level students studying the text and Nottingham New Theatre students also got to participate in delivering education workshops. Cascade exists to benefit students at the University, and without it this project would never have got off the ground.” President of Nottingham New Theatre Sam Hayward said the project was enormously beneficial to New Theatre. “This project directly reflected the title of Cascade by cascading knowledge from the professionals to the Nottingham New Theatre students, and thereafter from the Nottingham New Theatre students to A-Level students.”
First collaborative theatre project is a hit Cascade gave more than £12,000 to the student-run New Theatre to support a year-long skills programme and a production of Lysistrata at Lakeside Arts Centre in April. Cascade’s support of New Theatre gave the student theatre company the invaluable experience of working with a professional team on Lysistrata in what was the first collaboration between Lakeside and the New Theatre. In the play, billed as the original battle of the sexes, the women of ancient Athens form a no-sex pact to force men to stop waging war. An education programme also gave GCSE and A-level students the 10
Cast member and student Alix Hattenstone added: “Being involved in Lysistrata has been one of the best experiences of my life and I would recommend a similar project to anyone else. It has been amazing to have the chance to really develop my acting and writing skills through working with professionals and students of a similar age on a script that we helped to devise. Rehearsing intensely over a month has been a challenge, but I have found it is possible and rewarding to balance such an incredible experience with academic studies. Getting involved in this project has been one of the best and most enriching things I have ever done.”
First ever Summer Symphony in the Park
Vets in the Community
A free outdoor concert at University Park this summer was attended by hundreds of people. Cascade gave £24,500 to fund the first Summer Symphony in the Park, which featured the University Philharmonia, ensembles from across the city as well as music from China and Malaysia via a large screen. The concert provided a rare opportunity to see the acclaimed guitarist Xuefei Yang who also performed whilst concert-goers from the University community and the Nottingham public enjoyed a picnic and an afternoon of orchestral classics. Among those who performed with the Philharmonia were Jade Whymark, third year Music student and Daniella Blackford, second year Music student.
The University of Nottingham has established a studentled veterinary clinic to deliver healthcare to the pets of homeless and vulnerably housed people living in the city. Held on the last Wednesday of every month at the Big Issue office in Nottingham city centre, the clinic has received funding which will be used over the next three years thanks to support from the Cascade Fund.
Jade said: “Summer Symphony in the Park was a really unusual and exciting event. For me it was an invaluable opportunity to learn how to organise such a complex event, which I can tell employers about. I think the most exciting part was the audience’s reaction. To some, classical music is boring, so hopefully this will show them how much fun can be had.”
Under the supervision of suitably qualified staff, veterinary students provide health checks and treatment for simple conditions such as ear and eye infections. Animals brought to the clinics also receive preventive care, such as vaccinations and flea and worm treatments. While benefiting pet owners, the initiative is also providing students with practical experience and the opportunity to build on their communication and organisation skills.
Daniella added: “Holding a concert outside is something really different and quite exciting. Without Cascade funding we wouldn’t be able to afford the staging and equipment needed. Hopefully alumni and friends will be very proud of what they have supported!”
"Without Cascade funding we wouldn’t be able to afford the staging and equipment needed." Daniella Blackford, University Philharmonia
Students in hot water in Tanzania Further afield Cascade has also supported a group of University of Nottingham students to travel to Arusha, Tanzania to provide solar energy to the community living there. The students travelled out to train members of the local community to run a solar power business which will generate hot water and charge up solar batteries. As well as providing the local community with vital access to electricity, the project has also allowed the group to gain valuable skills in negotiating, purchasing, transport and logistics, sales and training.

Nottingham Potential Achieving your ambitions
The Centre, which has been operating since November 2012, has already opened its doors to a number of children in the St Ann’s area. Nine-year-old Bethany Frisby lives in St Ann’s with her mum and has been attending the centre since January this year. Her mum Leanne has already seen the difference in the quality of her homework and her enthusiasm for her school work since she started attending the centre. “Bethany has always been eager to learn and enjoys school and is one of the most able readers in her class,” says Leanne. “Since she’s been coming to the centre though, I’ve noticed an improvement in her homework and she’s always excited about coming here. She used to rush so she could do something else, but now she takes her time. She did a really good book report a few weeks ago and even her teachers at school commented on how good it was. We are already seeing the benefit of her coming here.”
Sir Steve Redgrave visits the second Nottingham Potential Centre
When the University’s second IntoUniversity centre opened in the St Ann’s area of Nottingham, one of its first visitors was five-times Olympic gold medal winning oarsman and University of Nottingham honorary graduate, Sir Steve Redgrave. He had some inspirational messages for some of Nottingham’s less advantaged young people.
12
“At the end of the school year my teachers gave out an award to the Best Potential Citizen - it normally went to the head girl or boy who was academically bright but this particular year I was the recipient of this award. And I thought why me? I didn’t understand at the time and it wasn’t until many years later, after all that I had achieved in my sport and after getting involved in various charity projects, that it suddenly dawned on me that actually the teachers had seen something in me that I didn’t know I had at the time. What’s important is realising you have been given opportunities and making the best from them. You have to work hard to do that but I hope you will all get a lot of opportunities in your lives. “To achieve your potential, to achieve your dreams, you have to put a lot of work in. We used to do two to four training sessions a day seven days a week, 49 weeks a year, getting a day off once every three weeks. When training gets hard and you want to give up and go home, look at the smaller elements of it, think about what little differences you can make to the value of the big dream. It’s breaking it down into small chunks which actually gets you through. Just before an Olympic race, I remember lying in the rest area thinking ‘I’m getting too nervous to be here, I would rather be anywhere else than here at this moment in time, I’m never going to do this again’. And then I thought well, I’ve done a lot of work and a lot of preparation so go out, give it your best shot, don’t hold back and try and make it your best ever performance, make sure you are satisfied that you have put everything into it.”
"Overall, thanks to your funding I am one year away from graduating with two degrees, and most importantly, graduating as the best doctor I can be." Laura Douglas, 4th year Medical Student
After his visit Sir Steve was guest of honour at a black tie dinner at the University, hosted by consultancy firm Gleeds, for whom Sir Steve is an ambassador. The evening celebrated the success of Nottingham Potential to date with the University’s partners and stakeholders and raised a total of £25,000 for the Nottingham Potential programme. The IntoUniversity Nottingham East Centre is part of the Nottingham Potential programme in the Impact Campaign and represents a major investment in the future of primary and secondary-age school pupils and a multimillion pound commitment to help break down the barriers to higher education. Delivered by education charity IntoUniversity, in partnership with The University of Nottingham, the new learning centres support pupils from the ages of 7-18, including one-to-one support with homework, literacy and numeracy, coursework, exams, GCSE options and A-levels, careers advice and applications to university.
The programme builds on the University’s successful Widening Participation work over the past decade within less privileged communities and aims to provide earlier, broader interventions for young people to raise attainment and encourage progression to university. Nottingham Potential has been made possible by a significant £2.1m donation from The David Ross Foundation, founded by David Ross, Nottingham Law alumnus and co-founder of Carphone Warehouse. The St Ann’s centre was the second to be opened in Nottingham. IntoUniversity Nottingham West in Broxtowe was opened in 2011 and a third centre is in the pipeline. The centres provide a base within the community for long-term, tailored support for young people. Impact: The Nottingham Campaign is also raising funds to help less advantaged young people achieve their potential when they start University. Over the course of the year 2012/13 our student telephone fundraisers raised a number of gifts from hundreds of the University’s alumni from their calling programmes for Nottingham Potential scholarships. Around £108,000 will benefit students from lower income backgrounds during their studies at The University of Nottingham. The scholarships will help those like fourth year medical student Laura Douglas who received a First in the Family scholarship. She said: “Medicine can be an expensive course, and I have used the scholarship funding to help me with the purchase of books, clinical equipment and travel to courses and conferences. This has meant that finance has not been a major concern for me, despite the fact that I thought it would be. It has allowed me to be like any other medical student and to completely concentrate on my studies, without the need to have a job, something that I think would have jeopardised my course, and certainly something that would have prevented me excelling as well as I have. Overall, thanks to your funding I am one year away from graduating with two degrees, and most importantly, graduating as the best doctor I can be.” More information is available from www.nottingham.ac.uk/NottinghamPotential and www.nottingham.ac.uk/impactcampaign/ scholarshipsandbursaries

The University of Nottingham Ningbo China Nurturing China’s talent
Impact from the University’s biggest ever fundraising campaign is now being felt in China in what has been a very busy year for The University of Nottingham Ningbo China. The University launched the UNNC Education Foundation to help talented students — particularly those in financial need to develop young academic talent and to grow the University’s research priorities across the world with the aim of changing lives, tackling global issues and shaping the future. The University of Nottingham Ningbo China is actively developing a world-changing research portfolio that seeks to support the ambitions of China as its economy continues to grow. The Foundation will strengthen our endeavour to create a talent pipeline of inquisitive, capable and globally responsible citizens, pushing the boundaries of knowledge to better serve their global community. The Foundation will also enable donors to support the growing number of research projects which the University has established across Asia. The launch of the new Education Foundation was at a very memorable and entertaining evening as we held UNNC’s first ever international cèilidh. The event was a lot of fun for our supporters and our students, staff and alumni. It also raised 70,000RMB (almost £7,500) for the Foundation and received more than 25,000RMB’s (£2,672) worth of sponsorship in-kind, through raffle prizes and gifts. The first major gift to the Foundation was a £20,000 donation from the Wanli Education Group for the second Life Cycle ride in the summer of 2012, to support students experiencing financial hardship in China. The ride by the Vice-Chancellor, Professor David Greenaway and his team, including myself, raised more than £250,000 to provide young people from disadvantaged backgrounds with the opportunity to enter higher education.
Students at Ningbo Campus
Professor Nick Miles has just received an OBE in recognition of his work to further UK/China educational interests. The Pro-Vice-Chancellor, CEO and Provost of The University of Nottingham Ningbo China (UNNC), leads on the University’s activities at the campus, which has 5,500 students and more than 500 staff. He joined the University to study for a PhD in 1978, has been based in China since 2009 and took charge of UNNC in April 2010.

The University has also launched a sports scholarship scheme for talented Chinese students in honour of alumna and legendary Chinese table tennis champion, Dr Deng Yaping, who this summer became an Honorary Graduate of the University. At the scholarships launch Dr Deng said: “I am really keen to help young sporting talent with their challenges in life and help athletes with transformation after retirement. Since they already possess good psychological qualities and indomitable will, once they have the opportunities to receive higher education, they can be very successful in many industries. I believe they will make the most of their opportunities studying at The University of Nottingham and strengthen the links between China and the rest of the world.”
Si Yuan Centre at Jubilee Campus
Back in Nottingham, His Excellency Liu Xiaoming, Ambassador of the People’s Republic of China to the UK, joined the former Deputy Prime Minister, Lord Prescott, to open the new Si Yuan Centre. The Centre houses the prestigious Nottingham Confucius Institute and the University’s School of Contemporary Chinese Studies (SCCS), which is a leading national and international institute dedicated to research and degree programmes about the study of China. The inspirational new, low-carbon, Si Yuan Centre is a superb enhancement to the award-winning Jubilee Campus and is another example of the generosity of our supporters having been funded and supported by Dr Thomas Chen of the Si Yuan Foundation and a member of the University’s College of Benefactors. It was back in 2004 that Nottingham became the first foreign university to open a campus in China. Located in Ningbo, a historic city in eastern China’s prosperous Zhejiang province, the campus continues to be developed in partnership with the Wanli Education Group. We are grateful for the continued support of the Chinese Government and the Wanli Education Group, and the commitment of our alumni, students, staff and sponsors. Our supporters leave behind a profound legacy that is helping to shape the new China. Would you consider joining us in supporting our best researchers to address pressing national and international issues? We are particularly keen to focus support on work related to the Chinese environment, its natural resources and its people.

The University of Nottingham Malaysia Campus Developing talent and growing research
The first prizes have also been awarded for the Jan Atkin Prize in Malaysia, established by Emeritus Professor Brian Atkin, former CEO of UNMC (2003-2008) in memory of his late wife, Jan Atkin. Jan was actively involved with UNMC students during her time in Malaysia. The prize was awarded to worthy students who have met both academic standards and who are deemed to have made the greatest contribution to campus or to the community. Hand-in-hand with student experience is research activity, which we hope to further develop, to contribute to the issues and challenges facing Malaysia and ASEAN, particularly in areas where Nottingham has special expertise. We aim to support our best researchers, both aspiring and established, and enable donors to support the growing number of research projects which the University has established across Asia.
This is a unique research project, which is working towards scientifically proven, evidencebased, conservation of the Malaysian elephant. Dr Ahimsa Campos-Arceiz working with Malaysian elephants
Thirteen years after she played an instrumental role in setting up The University of Nottingham Malaysia Campus (UNMC) Professor Christine Ennew is back at the helm as Pro-Vice-Chancellor, CEO & Provost of UNMC. But rather than reflect on past glories she has her eyes firmly set on strengthening and developing UNMC’s position not only in Malaysia, but also across ASEAN – the association of ten south-east Asian countries, of which Malaysia is a member.
On the agenda over the next five years are a range of new courses and plans for more students on existing courses. We would like to enhance the student experience on campus and recreate a Nottingham-style environment which engages and challenges students and helps them develop the skills they need for future employment. I am particularly proud of the high level of employability among graduates from UNMC – over 96 per cent are employed within 6 months of graduation. Donations to UNMC will provide scholarships and bursaries for students whose educational opportunities The University of Nottingham broke the higher education have been cut short by unexpected financial hardship, or by the environmental or political challenges that have mould when it established the first British campus in affected the region. Ten students are currently studying Malaysia 13 years ago. This required the support of with us in Malaysia thanks to the BP International the Malaysian Government and our partnerships with Boustead Holdings Berhad and YTL. Since the campus’ Elite Scholarship. BP provided awards of £7,000 to support these STEM (Science, Technology Engineering, inception UNMC’s student population has grown to Mathematics) students studying for their second year 4,800 and its research-active staff have been working at the UNMC campus. This is part of a wider package closely with increasing numbers of local communities of support from BP which currently supports STEM and businesses. students in the UK, study abroad programmes and engineering summer research projects.

The roll call of research specialties at UNMC currently includes aerospace engineering, bio-product processing, oil palm residues, renewables, elephant conservation and digital technologies and global food security, especially through its Crops for the Future Research Centre (CFFRC). Based near Kuala Lumpur and supported by the Malaysian Government, CFFRC is the first global centre for research on underutilised crops. This summer the Centre reached another milestone with the signing of a Memorandum of Understanding with the Centre for Coordination of Agricultural Research and Development for Southern Africa (CCARDESA), whose goal is to contribute to sustainable reduction in food insecurity and poverty in 15 Southern African countries. The MOU represents part of a growing trend to link Asian and African agricultural research. It forms an important element of CFFRC’s drive to form strategic alliances with key players in international agricultural research and increase Malaysia’s global research footprint.
Gifts to UNMC will build on existing philanthropic support. This year research into the conservation of the Malaysian elephant received funding of RM3.36m (£700,000) from the Malaysian based multinational Yayasan Sime Darby. Other important donors to the project are Singapore Zoo, Copenhagen Zoo, the National Zoo (US), US Fish & Wildlife Service and private philanthropists. The Asian elephant has been listed as endangered in IUCN’s Red List since 1986. They have been hunted and killed for their tusks to feed the ivory trade, live-captured for different purposes, killed for encroaching into villages and isolated due to habitat loss caused by human development. This is a unique research project, which is working towards scientifically proven, evidence-based, conservation of the Malaysian elephant. It is being done with the help of GPS collars, camera traps and hours spent searching through elephant dung. The work is being carried out by MEME — the Management and Ecology of Malaysian Elephants — a research project being led by Dr Ahimsa Campos-Arceiz from UNMC. The commitment from Yayasan Sime Darby (YSD) will enable MEME to buy additional high-sensitivity GPS satellite collars, VHF receivers and antenna as well as extra camera traps to film the elephants as they move about in the forest. Turning to the Faculty of Engineering, the Faculty has firmly established itself in the nation as the leading research institution in two key focal areas: aerospace engineering and environmental research. The Faculty has been identified as the key partner by the Aerospace Malaysia Innovation Centre (AMIC) and the National Space Agency (Angkasa) to develop the rapidly growing aerospace industries in Malaysia, especially in the manufacturing and composite sectors. UNMC, together with the expertise from the UK campus, is definitely placing itself in a strategic position in the national aerospace roadmap of Malaysia and the Asean region. The Centre of Green Technologies in the Faculty is recognised as the leading research group on environmental research in the Asean region. The group focuses on key regional issues like air pollution problems due to biomass burning, sustainable process integration in chemical plants, palm oil mill effluent (POME) treatments that find major impacts in various sectors in the region. Aside from excellence in research, the Centre is very active in organising professional development and training courses and has played a vital role in training the next generation of environmental professionals in the Asean region.

Revis Circle Scholarships Remembering The University of Nottingham
Without philanthropic acts throughout its history the University, as we know it, would not be here today. We can’t all donate large areas of land or give millions to charitable causes. But for many of us, a gift left in our Will is the most significant gift we ever make. After we have considered our family and friends, we can choose to support the causes which have been closest to our hearts during our lifetime with a gift that will have lasting impact long after we have gone. Legacy gifts pledged almost a century ago are continuing to have an impact on University life. The University values enormously the support that is illustrated by pledging a legacy gift. Anyone planning to leave a gift in their Will to The University of Nottingham is invited to join the Revis Circle, named after one of the University’s earliest and most significant legators W H Revis. The Circle has been created to thank and recognise those who are supporting the University in this unique way. Revis Circle members receive invitations to special events, as well as ongoing communications about how legacy gifts and philanthropy are making a crucial difference at Nottingham. William Henry Revis was born in Nottingham around 1849. He was educated at Nottingham High School before leaving to work in the lace industry. In 1899 he emigrated to America where he spent 15 years working as a merchant, importing building materials. In 1914 he returned to England, where he lived until his death in 1923. In his Will he left £10,000 and a portion of his estate to the then University College, Nottingham which was to become The University of Nottingham when it received its Royal Charter in 1948. The total bequest was almost £48,000 - over £1 million in today’s money. The trustees of Revis’ Will directed that the money should be used to fund scholarships, grants and loans for poor students “by whom a full education cannot be reached without considerable money help”. To this day the W H Revis Fund continues to provide scholarships for students here at Nottingham, currently supporting around 25 part-time postgraduate students a year with the cost of their tuition fees. One recipient of funding through the WH Revis Bequest Fund is Nottingham graduate Luman Ali (History and Politics 2006, History MA 2007). He said: “The fund has removed a massive financial strain on me and has allowed me to pay for my tuition fees, which I would have struggled to do without the grant from the Revis Fund. Without the funding, I would most likely have had to drop off from my course of study. The funding has allowed me to stay on my course and keep alive my dreams of becoming the first person in my immediate and extended family to gain a PhD.

"Many people make a lot of money in life but it serves them no purpose when they depart this earth. Mr Revis has ensured that his legacy and reputation for charitable giving has been firmly established as he has made a positive difference to the lives of so many people. For this, he must be celebrated and his family thanked. Greatness is measured not only in the personal achievements of a great individual but also in how that great individual has enabled others to become great also.”
Current students are well aware of the heritage of an award they might receive and every year a number of historic Nottingham Endowed Awards are made to outstanding postgraduate students, nominated by their School. They receive a monetary prize and a certificate with the money originating from the interest earned on the original awards. They include: • Andrew Hendry Postgraduate Scholarship - founded in 1968 from subscriptions raised in memory of the late Mr Andrew Hendry, Bursar of the University, 1948-66. • Gertrude Cropper Scholarship - founded in 1949 by a bequest under the will of Miss Gertrude N H Cropper, formerly of Woodthorpe, Nottingham. • Heymann Research Scholarships - founded in 1892 by Henry Heymann of Nottingham. • Dean Moore Scholarships - founded in 1949 by a bequest under the will of Mrs Florence Moore (nee Dean) of Thorneywood.
Professor Jerry Roberts presents postgraduate student Vibhore Prasad with his award
Long-standing members of staff too appreciate the opportunity to ensure their own legacy continues and has an impact on students of the future. Dr Margaret Jackson (Mathematics PhD 1952) was passionate about mathematics and taught at the University for 30 years. Her career as a senior lecturer was balanced with her long term care of students both within the Mathematics Department and as a tutor in Florence Boot Hall. Thanks to her generous legacy gift The Dr Margaret Jackson Bursary has been established following her death in October 2012. This encourages women as an under represented group to undertake short-term research internships as a gateway to the pursuit of postgraduate research degrees and academic posts within the School of Mathematical Sciences. We know that many of you hold the University in high regard, not least for the way in which your own unique experience of Nottingham has touched your life. If you choose to remember Nottingham in your Will, we believe you can do so in safe knowledge that your legacy will be felt by those who stand to benefit from all the rich and diverse opportunities the University provides. To find out more about leaving a legacy for generations to come, please contact Andrew Wright, Development Officer. t: +44(0)115 951 3664 e: andrew.wright@nottingham.ac.uk w: www.nottingham.ac.uk/legacies

Corporate philanthropy Corporate support adds a new dimension to Impact
Work has now begun on the GlaxoSmithKline Carbon Neutral Laboratory for Sustainable Chemistry, which is based at the Innovation Park on the University’s Jubilee Campus. The laboratory will focus on research that is of particular relevance to the pharmaceutical industry and which complements established expertise at the University. It will also deliver advanced undergraduate teaching and outreach to the wider scientific community to embed sustainable chemistry principles in the next generation of scientists. The Centre for Sustainable Chemistry will be housed in a brand new carbon neutral laboratory, the first of its kind in the UK. The Centre will be unique not only in its design but also in its focus on world-leading research activity in sustainable chemistry that will aim for the highest "clean and green" standards to minimise environmental impact and ensure that the new chemistry developed is both energy and resource efficient, and sustainable. Artist impression of the GSK Carbon Neutral Laboratory for Sustainable Chemistry
Neil Morris, BP Audit Director - Operations and Functions, meets with BP scholarship recipients
Corporate support and commitment for Impact: The Nottingham Campaign has been significant and has taken many different forms. The largest corporate gift the University has ever received came with the £12 million gift given to the University from GlaxoSmithKline (GSK) to establish a new laboratory to accommodate a Centre of Excellence for sustainable chemistry, and to construct an innovative carbon neutral sustainable chemistry laboratory.
Aside from the physical building the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) and GSK are jointly contributing to the funding for a Chair in Sustainable Chemistry. Professor Hon Lam has already taken up his post as the new Chair, joining the University from the University of Edinburgh where he had built an outstanding reputation for his work in catalyst-based organic synthesis. His work at Nottingham will strengthen the long term partnership between Nottingham and GSK by developing 'greener' catalysts aligned to drug discovery and sustainable chemical processes. The appointment represents the first of two new GSK/EPSRC co-funded Chairs in Sustainable Chemistry, and the second appointment will be made in late 2013. Global energy company BP plc this year pledged £800,000 to the University as part of a new scholarship programme to support students over the next four years. The BP scholarship programme has provided 10 scholarships, each worth £5,000, to the University in its first year, to support talented Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths (STEM) undergraduates throughout their degree courses.
20
As the scholarship fund is rolled out over the following three years it will be awarded to a further 10 students each year, to support them for the entirety of their studies. Already a major supporter of scholarships at the University this is the first year that BP, one of the UK’s leading graduate recruiters, has rolled out the new programme which is aimed at building capacity in skills and knowledge which are greatly needed in the energy industry. Pro-Vice-Chancellor for Business Engagement, Professor Chris Rudd said; “BP is a strategic partner of this University and our two organisations have a shared understanding of the importance of global opportunities. Working together to train a new cadre of globally aware graduates adds an innovative dimension to our relationship and will set a new standard for higher education – business partnerships.” A further six engineering scholarships are being funded by Caterpillar, a leading manufacturer of heavy equipment and power systems products. Nottingham is one of five universities to benefit from the donation, which is part of Caterpillar’s ongoing commitment to sustainable education and the Caterpillar Foundation’s investment in STEM subjects will help increase the UK pipeline of talent in these critical fields. The money will be used predominantly to provide student support for six scholarships in engineering which will remain in place for the duration of their studies. It will also go towards a number of engineering taster days, which will be targeted at children from disadvantaged areas and contribute towards an engineering, maths and computer science summer school. Many of the UK’s most senior business executives have lent their corporate support this year to talk to students, staff and the business community at the University as part of Nottingham University Business School’s Business Leader Series of talks and presentations. This year’s programme featured Nottingham alumnus and MD of Ford of Britain Mark Ovenden, the Chief Executive of International Airlines Group Willie Walsh, Corneel Koster, Director of Safety and Operations at Virgin Atlantic and iconic international fashion designer Sir Paul Smith.

Children's Brain Tumour Research Fundraising in the community is a team effort
Every year around 450 children in the UK are diagnosed with a brain tumour. Survival rates for childhood brain tumours in the UK are among the lowest in Europe. The University of Nottingham and the QMC have been UK leaders in childhood brain tumours since the UK’s first paediatric neuroscience ward opened at the QMC in the 1980s. The CBTRC performs pioneering research into genetic abnormalities of brain tumours, novel imaging techniques and drug delivery. It also excels in diagnosis, innovative treatment and raising awareness. Additional funding will enable further crucial advances to be made into understanding the cause, nature, treatment and outcomes of childhood brain tumours. And their work has impact. This year it was revealed that the time it takes doctors to diagnose a brain tumour in children and young people has fallen for a second year in a row, two years after the launch of a national awareness campaign - HeadSmart - involving experts at The University of Nottingham. The latest diagnosis time results showed that the average length of time it took to diagnose a brain tumour in a child in the UK has fallen to 6.9 weeks - down from 7.5 weeks last year. HeadSmart won a major national NHS Innovation Award for its work in improving early cancer diagnosis. CBTRC also benefited this year from a £25,000 donation from Westfield Health. This donation from the health cash plan provider will part-contribute towards a new intraoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) scanner, enabling the surgeon in the operating theatre to quickly check that the surgery has had an optimal result in removing as much of the brain tumour as possible, therefore improving the patient’s long-term prognosis.
A family meeting with Professor Richard Grundy at the CBTRC
Communities throughout the East Midlands have been actively involved with Impact: The Nottingham Campaign. The collaboration between the general public with local and national organisations, civic figureheads, University academics and the beneficiaries of fundraising builds a powerful team and exemplifies what the Campaign is about – changing lives and shaping the future. Nowhere is that more evident than the community support for the Children’s Brain Tumour Research Centre (CBTRC) at the Queen’s Medical Centre (QMC) in Nottingham.
22
CBTRC was the chosen charity in 2012/13 for The Worshipful Mayor of the Borough of Gedling in Nottinghamshire, Councillor Sandra Barnes. Through a year-long series of high profile civic events attended by thousands of people she has so far raised in the region of £24,000 for CBTRC.

The Walk for Alfi Team
The Jessica Hope Foundation too has been fundraising this year not only for CBTRC and HeadSmart, but also for a planned teenage cancer unit at the QMC and Rainbows Hospice in Leicestershire. The Foundation was set up as a tribute to the grace and bravery of 16-year-old Jessica Hope from Long Eaton, Nottingham, who died in 2013 less than a year after being diagnosed with a malignant brain tumour. Jessica had been a keen netball player and local players The Moll Buzzers Netball Club chose the Foundation to be one of the beneficiaries from their charity netball tournament in Nottingham in the summer of 2013. www.facebook.com/thejessicahopefoundation Christopher Bramhall from Harrogate was first diagnosed with a rare kind of brain tumour at just eightyears-old, and despite periods of remission and many different treatments, lost his battle against ependymoma in January this year, aged 21. It was his wish that the remainder of the fundraising, carried out by his mother Sara Wilson, grandmother Jean Wilson and family and friends to help fund groundbreaking treatments, should be donated to ependymoma research. His family have therefore donated £30,000 to the CBTRC. Dr Beth Coyle, Associate Professor at the CBTRC said: "It is with the kind and generous support of fundraisers and donators such as these that we've been able to make such strides in understanding and treating children's brain tumours over the last decade. We now know a lot more about the battle that we are facing but we need continued support and fundraising to support our research." In this video (http://youtu.be/Vzibo9I9Ojg) Co-Director of the CBTRC at the University and Professor Paediatric Oncology, Dr David Walker tells us where they hope to expand in terms of equipment, new technologies and extended research thanks to support from donors.

The walkers, including Alfi’s dad Halim Mjeshtri, Peter Schofield, Peter Taylor, Richard Moss, Martin Upton and Gary Freakley with James Wright as team support, have so far raised more than £18,500. This money will enable the continued delivery of ground-breaking results for patients and their families at the same time as propelling research capability forwards. www.justgiving.com/Walk-For-Alfi 23
University community support University staff and students are making their own Impact
The staff response in giving to Impact: The Nottingham Campaign has exceeded all expectations amidst a number of new innovations aimed at encouraging University staff and students to lend their support to the fundraising.
Staff donations through the Small Change: Big Impact scheme have grown significantly since the fledgling scheme began at Nottingham in December 2011. The net monthly pay of staff who subscribe to Small Change: Big Impact is rounded down to the nearest pound, with the pennies automatically going to a project For seven days in May the University staged its first ever supported by the University’s Campaign. The pennies collected from the pay packets of more than 600 staff dedicated week of fundraising to support the Young are currently raising around £300 each month. Many Carers and Young Adult Carers project, a key element staff have also chosen to further their support by setting of the Health and Well-being theme of Impact: The up a monthly direct debit.

As a direct result of the fundraising week and the support of staff and students we were able to stage the UK’s first ever open day dedicated to young people who care for a family member. More than 100 young carers from across the country attended the open day to find out what university has to offer them with academic taster sessions, activities at Lakeside and the Sports Centre and drop-in advice sessions. After the day, Rachel Woodbridge of the Warwickshire Young Carers organisation said: “There is a real buzz among our 12-16-year-olds about going to university. Without these enthusiastic conversations which have spilled over from your day some of these young people will have never had the opportunity to even contemplate university, let alone at an age that makes it a realistic and achievable goal for them.” For information about how to make a text donation, go to www.alumni.nottingham.ac.uk/netcommunity/ youngcarers or telephone 0115 823 2804 to make a gift over the phone.
Following a consultation with staff towards the end of last year, Cancer: Early Detection was overwhelmingly chosen as the 2013 beneficiary of Small Change: Big Impact. Cancer: Early Detection will have a genuine impact on the quality of life of patients in the UK and worldwide and will save more people who might otherwise die from cancer. In 2011, the University established the world’s first Centre of Excellence for Autoimmunity in Cancer (CEAC). Here researchers are developing blood tests for early detection of cancer by looking for antibodies produced by an individual’s immune system in response to cancer. Early detection blood tests can detect breast cancer up to four years earlier than a mammogram and can detect lung cancer significantly before patients present with symptoms. For more information about CEAC, please contact Emma Pearson, Senior Development Manager (Health). t: +44(0)115 951 3724 e: emma.pearson@nottingham.ac.uk w: www.nottingham.ac.uk/impactcampaign/ cancerimmunity

Concepcion Beardall (left) enjoying an event for University donors at the Theatre Royal in Nottingham
By the time she had endured the Civil War and the Second World War in her native Spain it was simply too late for Concepcion Beardall to have a university education. After arriving in Nottingham in 1957 Concepcion threw herself into her work as head of the translation section at Raleigh Industries where she stayed for 25 years. She also taught Spanish in Nottingham colleges. But her thirst for knowledge led her to the Adult Education Centre where over a 15-year period she enjoyed 23 different courses, in the process completing a degree in Combined Studies in 1995.
"I am an alumna of the University and I am very proud of that," said Concepcion, who will be 90 this year and has generously given a gift to the University every month for the last five years. "I have my certificate hanging on my wall and I would still have been doing courses today if it weren't for my ill health. I do have to look after myself now. I can't afford very much but I hope it's a help because I did want to give something back to the University."
