The theme of this year’s magazine is ‘community’. Professor Sir Anthony Finkelstein, reflecting on the term and its connotations, said:
In 1894, City’s predecessor, the Northampton Institute, was founded on the basis of enhancing the industrial skills, general knowledge, health and wellbeing of the members of its local community.
Over 125 years on, City remains firmly rooted in its mission to support its community whether students, staff, alumni, partners and neighbours.
The past year has been challenging, particularly around the cost of living, which City has risen to through providing bursaries to struggling students, subsidised dinners on campus and free legal advice to local residents.
