Changemaker Winners: Inspiring Ideas
These students have made their social innovation ideas a reality with help from the University of Northampton; we hope you find them inspiring!
Every year the University of Northampton holds our Changemaker Awards to celebrate the achievements of students and staff in making a positive difference in their community.
We’re proud of the work that students have done, and we have an award winning team here to support you in making your ideas a reality, be it a charity, social enterprise or business.
We are the only university in England to have official AshokaU Changemaker status, so there’s no better place for you to kickstart your new venture. If you have an idea, we have the resources and funding to help you make it a reality when you arrive.
