THE LAST WORD

Dr Sally Howes OBE, UEA’s new Chair of Council, celebrates your generosity.

Ijoined UEA as The Difference Campaign was nearing its target. This enormous fundraising effort has blown me away.

I have worked in the aerospace industry and know firsthand what passion and collaboration can achieve. UEA has many pioneers of its own. Not just its students, world-leading scientists, researchers and educators, but also its supporters.

The Difference Campaign, and all it has achieved, was only made possible because of generous people coming together to make a difference. Those who fund the work, those who will undertake it, and those who benefit from it.

You have been a vital part of that. Your name is now part of the story of UEA. And your accomplishment comes just as we prepare to celebrate the 60th year of the University.

As the ink dries on The Difference Campaign’s final accounts, we are already looking to the future. To the next global challenges that we will solve, the next great fundraising effort. Exciting times lie ahead for UEA’s philanthropic community. But for now, we toast this successful chapter in our story.

To you, our loyal supporters. Thank you so much.

Dr Sally Howes OBE Chair, University of East Anglia

YOUR GENEROSITY INSPIRES US ALL. TOGETHER, WE HAVE ACHIEVED SO MUCH.
