The largest UK-owned motorcycle manufacturing company has provided philanthropic funding to Loughborough University to support its students.
Triumph Motorcycles Ltd has provided £45,000 to support the Student Success Academy and three Opportunity Scholars.
Originally made possible through the generous donation of alumnus Chris Gill in 2021, the Student Success Academy aims to help students achieve their goals during their time at University by providing a holistic package of support through initiatives including Academic Success Coaching, Micro-Internships and the Future Black Talent Programme.
Additionally, Triumph will be supporting three students who receive cash bursaries through the Opportunity Scholarship. These scholarships are allocated to UK students living in areas of low participation in higher education, areas of socio-economic deprivation, or those entitled to Free School Meals. The Scholarship eases the financial burden to those wanting to attend university by providing them with £3,000 per year for three years. The initiative has seen a record number of Scholarships awarded, with a cohort of 53 for the 22/23 academic year.
Triumph supports scholars who began their university experience this month and are studying Product Design Engineering and Automotive Engineering.
