2 Donor Report

Here at the University of Liverpool our students are being taught by an inspirational team of academics who are carrying out research that addresses some of the world’s toughest challenges.

Over the last year donations have helped us to support a number of these talented and deserving students with scholarships. I feel privileged to have met some of these students whose time here would simply not have been possible without this additional support. It is fantastic to hear how their positive experiences at Liverpool have enhanced their career prospects for the future.

The generous support from donors like you has also helped us to invest in our facilities so we can maintain our focus on enhancing the student experience. Your donations have funded surgical and audio visual equipment to improve the teaching of equine surgery in Veterinary Science, Bloomberg software benefi ting our Finance and Economics students in our Management School, and an industrial robot to enhance robotics teaching in the School of Engineering.

Donors have also played a role in supporting our research. In this report you will see fi rst-hand the impact that your support has had on supporting PhD researchers who are undertaking degrees in a range of subjects including in English, Particle Physics, Egyptology and Mathematics. Also included in this report is information on the role philanthropy is playing in helping us to develop a state-of-the-art research and education facility on the site of the new and improved Alder Hey Children’s Hospital, Alder Hey in the Park. Thanks to the support of our donors we will push forward medical breakthroughs in child health and build on our position as the UK’s leading centre for research into medicines for children.

We are proud to describe ourselves as life changing and world shaping, but our impact would be far less without the support of our donor community. I hope you enjoy reading this report. It comes with a heartfelt ‘thank you’.

FUNDRAISING IN ACTIONEach year, our alumni are asked to support the University through a series of telephone campaigns run by our team of student callers. The telephone campaigns give alumni the opportunity to offer their support via the Benefactors’ Fund and to invest in the future of the University. By speaking to a current student, alumni have a chance to reminisce about their own student days and to find out about the work the University is currently involved in. During the last year, 30 student callers contacted more than 16,500 alumni based in the UK, US and Canada.

I really enjoyed chatting to grace and hearing first-hand about the impact that supporting the benefactors’ Fund has on today’s students. speaking with grace also provided me with the opportunity to reminisce about my time at Liverpool and to hear about the latest developments on campus.

It’s always been my ambition to become an academic researcher and I’ve worked really hard to get the best results I could to help fulfil my goal, but money was always an obstacle. The generous support of donors such as michael is allowing me to fulfil my dreams. Thank you so much.

Daniel brown – sir Joseph rotblat Alumni scholarship holder

Working for the benefactors’ Fund allowed me to speak to some really interesting people. I really enjoyed hearing people’s memories about the University and comparing them with my own. benefactors like michael made the job fun and worthwhile, and it was lovely to be able to put the names and personalities of each donor to the donation they were making.

OverseAs mPHIL HONOUrs sPINAL sUrgeON

The family of a former Professor of Orthopaedics have given a transformational gift of £247,000 to set up an overseas MPhil in memory of their late father.

Robert Roaf was Professor of Orthopaedics at the University of Liverpool from 1964–1976 and was an eminent, innovative orthopaedic surgeon who contributed signifi cantly to the establishment of spinal units and the speciality of spinal injury in the UK.

Robert had a fascinating international career and in 1952, as part of the Colombo Plan, he successfully started a postgraduate training programme at the Irwin Hospital, Delhi, India, and visited many parts of the country to lecture and operate. Later he was invited by the British Council to visit, lecture and treat patients all over the world.

His children - John Roaf (BSc Hons 1972) David Roaf, Margery Hyde and Sara Adams (pictured

above) - were delighted to honour his contribution to spinal medicine and international collaboration by supporting this overseas clinical MPhil.

DrIveN TO HeLP OTHers sUCCeeD

The driver of last year’s Formula Student engineering competition has made a £1,000 donation to his former team.

Harry Eyre (pictured in the driving seat) graduated with a MEng in July 2013 and is now working on the Graduate Recruitment Programme at Rolls-Royce in Bristol, alongside former Formula Student teammate, Samuel Dauncey (MEng 2013).

Formula Student is an annual competition run by the Institute of Mechanical Engineers where students work together to design and build a single-seater racing car. Attracting entries from universities all over theworld, the competition is designed to encourage and inspire the next generation of engineers.

“Following an anonymous donation last year, I saw fi rst-hand what a difference a philanthropic gift can make to the team,” said Harry. “I am passionate about Formula Student and I want to help them do the best they can.”

Lucas Prytherch (MEng 2014), 2013/14 team leader for the Formula Student project, said: “This contribution will be used to help fund our international venture to Formula Student Hungary, which allows team members to showcase their hard work on a more global scale. The team would like to thank Harry for his continued technical support and contribution, which both enriches the educational experience and makes the entire project even more enjoyable.”

gIFT OF LITerATUre

Brian Nellist, who was a lecturer in English literature at the University from 1959–2000, has pledged a sizeable donation to establish a scholarship fund for English students, inspired by his own route into higher education and using money he has saved all of his life.

“I was supported by a William Noble Fellowship when I arrived at the University as a junior academic,” said Brian. “This enabled me to pursue my career, so I’ve given this donation as my offer to help future students.”

Although he has now retired from his role in the School of English, Brian currently works for Liverpool’s Reader Organisation – which promotes reading to people from a wide variety of backgrounds – and also works part-time at the University’s Centre for Lifelong Learning.

His gift will enable many more students to have the opportunity to study at the University in the future and will help to share his enthusiasm for English literature. The scholarships are for undergraduates in the School of English and will help to support talented students from underprivileged backgrounds.

“Reading literature introduces you to complex thoughts, feelings and ideas, and in doing so is bound to have an effect on your own way of thinking,” said Brian. “The most complex use of language is found in literature and studying it helps to improve the way you articulate your thoughts. And that is a valuable skill for anyone to have.”

Working with local communities, the team will tackle issues such as water contamination

by building wells, and will work to educate people in the local community to try to reduce poverty. Abdulhafi d will also travel to China to undertake a four-week summer course at the University’s partner institution in Suzhou, Xi’an Jiaotong-Liverpool University, in order to develop his business, commercial and cultural awareness.

Second year Mechanical Engineering student Jack Kershaw has been awarded the William Morgan Personal Development Scholarship to undertake a series of graphic design, drawing, photography and web design courses to enhance his employability in the design sector

of the engineering industry. The £5,000 award will also fund a trip to Sri Lanka, where he will help in a voluntary programme.

Steve said: “I am delighted to be in a position to help students at the University and in my old department and to give something back for the education and experience that I received at Liverpool.

“I hope the scholarship recipients gain confi dence, self-belief, further knowledge, and that it stretches their development so that they gain an exceptional fi rst position in industry as a University of Liverpool graduate.”

This scholarship changed my life; it has enabled me to pursue research that I am truly passionate about and to work towards my ultimate aim of a career in academia. I cannot thank the trustees enough and I will be forever grateful.

I am so grateful for the prestigious honour which enabled me to complete my PhD in applied mathematics at the University of Liverpool. I completed both my degree and my msc in the mathematical sciences Department, and I am very proud to have also obtained my PhD there.

The University is creating a state-of-the-art research and education facility on the site of the new and improved Alder Hey Children’s Hospital, Alder Hey in the Park.

The £25 million facility will build on the University’s position as the UK’s leading centre for research into medicines for children, bringing together the expertise of world-class researchers under one roof and offering both easier access to large data samples and direct contact with patients. This will enable the University to expand its cutting-edge research on respiratory viral infections in children, paediatric autoimmune rheumatic disorders, biomarkers detection to improve the management of serious bacterial infection, cancer, lupis, cystic fibrosis and asthma.

The first phase is due to open in 2015, in conjunction with the opening of the £237 million hospital development. The project has already received generous donations from our donor community, including £1 million from the Wolfson Foundation. Chief Executive Paul Ramsbottom explains: “The Wolfson Foundation supports and promotes excellence

RAISING mONEy FOR ChILD hEALTh RESEARCh

in the fields of science and medicine, health and disability, education and the arts and humanities. We are pleased to have a long-standing relationship with the University of Liverpool, going back to the 1960s.

“We are delighted to be backing high-quality research in a field with relatively few centres of excellence across the UK. The hope, shared by all of those involved in the project, is that the end result will be improved treatments for children.”

A pledge of £75,000 has also come from alumnus Huw Jenkins (BA Hons Social Studies 1980), who said: “This is a really important project for Liverpool and I’m very happy to be able to support an area of research in which the University excels.”

We are still fundraising for this important research and need to raise a further £10 million to complete the second phase of the facility. A gift to support the development of this project will help to ensure healthier and longer lives for children locally and throughout the world. If you would like to help, please go to: www.liverpool.ac.uk/giving.

1,000 FOr £1,000

In 2011, the Benefactors’ Fund hit a milestone by raising £1 million. A second target to raise a further £1 million was then set so that we could continue our work in helping to enhance the student experience and to provide additional student scholarships. We are now less than £300,000 away from raising our second £1 million.

One of the ways that you’re helping us to achieve our goal is by taking part in our 1,000 for £1,000 campaign, where donors are asked to pledge a gift of £1,000 in a way that suits them – either through a one-off gift, or a regular gift pledged over a number of months or years.

Dr Peter J Farrelly (BDS Dental Surgery 1977), a 1,000 for £1,000 member, said: “The 1,000 for £1,000 campaign provides a fl exible way for supporters to make their gift on an individually affordable basis – whether you choose to give a single gift of £1,000, or spread your donations over a number of months or years. That could work out at less than £1 per day if you pledged a monthly gift over three years, so for less than your daily coffee you can play a part in changing the lives of students at Liverpool.”

Thanks to a substantial donation from a University alumnus, a prestigious prize for chemistry was awarded in June this year for the fi rst time in 13 years.

The recipient of the Potts Medal for Outstanding Contribution to Chemistry, which was fi rst awarded in 1933, was decided upon by current students and awarded to alumna Professor Alison Ashcroft (BSc Hons Chemistry 1977) (pictured above).

During the medal ceremony, Alison – who is Professor of Biomolecular Mass Spectrometry in the Astbury Centre for Structural Molecular Biology and Faculty of Biological Sciences at the University of Leeds – gave a lecture on her area of specialism, bio-molecular mass spectrometry.

Professor Andrew Hodgson, Head of the Department of Chemistry, said: “Reinstating this high-profi le award recognises alumni achievement, inspires current students, and encourages lifelong relationships. We are extremely grateful to have had the support needed for its return.”

Previous Potts Medal winners include Professor Sir Brian Smith (BSc Hons Chemistry 1954, PhD 1957), the former Vice-Chancellor of Cardiff University; bass baritone John Shirley Quirk CBE (BSc 1951, Hon DMus 1976); and W Clayton (BSc Hons Chemistry 1914, MSc 1915, DSc 1921).

The medal is named in honour of alumnus Harold Edwin Potts (BSc Hons Chemistry 1906, MSc 1907) a graduate of the University of Liverpool who gained a First Class Honours degree in Chemistry and later became a Vice-President of Council, Chairman of Convocation, Chairman of the University of Liverpool Society and President of the University Club.

LIbrAry ‘PAss IT ON’ sCHeme

The University library’s ‘Pass it on’ scheme is an initiative designed to make it easier for students to get hold of the textbooks they need.

The idea is simple: students who are leaving or who no longer need a textbook deposit it at the library at the end of the summer term, and those books are then passed on to new students at the beginning of the next academic year. More than 700 books have already been deposited through the scheme.

University Librarian Phil Sykes said: “We’ve been knocked out by the success of this initiative. It speaks volumes about the benevolence of our students. In an age when it is fashionable to see students simply as ‘consumers’ it’s really heartening to have this reminder that so many of our students are so generous.”

Former Guild President Sam Butler said: “During 2012 we ran a campaign called ‘Pound in your pocket’ which looked at reducing the additional costs of studying a degree. We found that the biggest factor affecting a student’s academic success was financial sustainability, and one of the most expensive additional costs to students was textbooks and resources.

“We initiated the ‘Pass it on’ scheme with the libraries who have really taken the idea and run with it. Not only will the 700 books donated provide a massive cost saving for new students, but this initiative demonstrates that students are keen to help out their fellow students and to build a positive community in Liverpool.”

Leaving a legacy to the University in your will is one of the most personal ways to offer your support and make a difference. Your pledge, whether large or small, will have a significant impact on the lives of students on campus and scientific discoveries long into the future, leaving a lasting legacy.

The University has benefited from a significant number of legacy bequests from alumni and other supporters over the past year, with more than £1.2 million received in total.

Legacy gifts are vital to our life-changing, world-shaping agenda and support our work in many ways. Recent bequests have allowed improvements to postgraduate facilities at the Sydney Jones Library, created a hardship fund for students in the School of Veterinary Science, supported vital research into the treatment of viruses, and have made it possible for exceptional graduates to continue to postgraduate study via the Sir Joseph Rotblat Alumni scholarship.

If you are interested in discussing a legacy gift, or would like help with suggested wording for inclusion in your will, please contact Stephen Kehoe on: +44 (0)151 795 4637 or email: [email protected].

The University received a bequest of £54,738 from the estate of alumna Elizabeth Gidney (née Bushell) (BA Hons English Language & Literature 1938, Diploma in Education 1939), who was the oldest surviving Lady President of the Liverpool Guild of Students. Her gift has been used to support the redevelopment of the Guild of Students, and three rooms inside the building have now been named after her.

Sam Butler, former Guild President, said: “The Elizabeth Gidney legacy has enabled the Guild to create a dedicated suite of rooms for student democracy. These will become the hub of democratic debate and activity; a place where students can meet to discuss the important issues of the day. We hope this space will be a platform for the leaders of tomorrow, who are walking in the footsteps of trailblazers of the movement – people just like Elizabeth Gidney herself.”

The Guild of Students reopened its doors in September following a £13.8 million refurbishment.

Improvements include a cinema room, a new-look Stanley theatre, one of the biggest performance venues in the city with a state-of-the-art sound and lighting system, and a bar.

The courtyard has also been refi tted with new lighting, heating and furniture, and a food servery. This major overhaul means that the Guild is once again the largest students’ union building in the country.

A legacy gift left by alumnus Dr Michael Pugh Thomas (BSc Hons Zoology 1954, PhD 1959) and his wife Julia Carter Preston is helping to fund quarterly bursaries of up to £300 to support biology students attending conferences that will demonstrate a clear and tangible benefit to their career development.

Victoria Warwick-Evans, a recipient of the Michael Pugh Thomas fund, used her award to present a poster at her first scientific conference, the 12th International Seabird Group Conference. At the conference, Victoria attended a workshop with other scientists at a similar stage in their career, leading to the formation of a group for young seabird scientists. The group plan to discuss seabird research and field methods and to share

information on skills, courses, conferences, jobs and careers. Dr Pugh Thomas spent the majority of his career in academia at the University of Salford, lecturing in the Department of Biology and the Environmental Institute before becoming Director of the Environmental Resources Unit in 1988. He retired in 1997 but continued to teach part-time at Salford and at Liverpool Hope University. He also acted as a consultant for the World Health Organisation and served as Chairman of the Council of the Institution of Environmental Sciences. His wife, Julia, was a renowned Liverpool ceramic artist whose work is represented in the University’s Victoria Gallery & Museum, the Walker Art Gallery in Liverpool, the Ulster Museum in Belfast and the Smithsonian Institution, Washington.

The award provided by this legacy gift enabled me to attend my first scientific conference, the International seabird group Conference. The opportunity to learn first-hand about current developments in the field has inspired my own research, and presenting my first scientific poster and discussing my work was an exciting and rewarding experience.
