Student hardship

Providing vital support to students experiencing financial hardship.

Student hardship


Through the Greenwich Student Fund, you can provide emergency assistance to students who find themselves in unexpected financial need. Your support can ensure that a student is able to focus on their studies.

The number of Greenwich students who need financial support is rising, especially as they are being hit by an increase cost of living. There has been an increase cost of food, energy, travel, and accommodation – which has become one of the most pressing issues our students are facing on campus today.

Through the Annual Fund, the Greenwich Student Fund helps with essential living costs, emergency assistance, and is a lifeline to students in crisis.

Your contribution will make this difference, providing meaningful impact on students who are facing unexpected financial difficulties.

Some of the ways your donation might be used to help students in need:

  • £50 could provide a student with emergency funding for groceries.
  • £100 could help a student with study cost, such as books at the start of the year, course materials or stationery.
  • £250 could provide a student with breakfast on campus for a term.
  • £500 could support a student who is a parent with childcare costs so they can continue to study.
  • £1,000 could help a student continue their education despite financial hardship.

For students with limited resources, any unexpected cost can land them in genuine financial hardship. Whatever your gift size, your support goes directly to students in need, helping them overcome short-term financial crises and stay on track.
