Just one week until our 2022 Making a Difference Awards!

There is just one week to go before our 2022 Making a Difference Awards take place, live from the Whitworth Hall on Tuesday 10 May.

The Making a Difference Awards aim to recognise and celebrate the many different types of social responsibility achievements of the University’s staff, students, alumni and external partners.

Everyone is invited to join our Chancellor Lemn Sissay OBE and our President and Vice-Chancellor Professor Dame Nancy Rothwell, live online at our Making a Difference Awards on Tuesday, 10 May, 18:00 – 19:30.

After two years of virtual ceremonies, we’re fortunate to be hosting our 2022 Awards live from the Whitworth Hall, where we will be presenting the winners and highly commended awards in person. So, why not tune in to our YouTube or Facebook livestream and help us celebrate the many ways in which our University community is making a difference?

This year’s ceremony will mark Lemn Sissay’s last Awards, as he passes on the Chancellor baton this summer. Tune in to watch Lemn perform his newly commissioned poem, commemorating his seven years as the University’s Chancellor, live for the first time.
