The 1900 Society: Membership of this Society is open to all who give £1,000 or more within an academic year. You'll receive a formal certificate which recognises your generous donation and you'll also be invited to an annual drinks reception, hosted by the Vice Chancellor.

The Chancellor's Guild of Benefactors: This is the highest honour that we can bestow on a donor, and membership is open to those who make exceptional gifts to the institution – in excess of £1 million.

To recognise these extraordinary contributions, the Chancellor presents members with special robes and their certificates at a formal ceremony. Members will also get invited to important University events throughout the academic year.

The Rowbotham Fellowship: The Fellowship recognises all those who have chosen to leave a legacy to the University. It's named in honour of the bequest made by Sir Samuel Hanson Rowbotham and entitles the benefactor to a recording of their name and bequest in the leather bound 'Register of Bequests' outside the Great Hall, an invitation to the annual donor's reception, and receipt of the annual donor newsletter.
