The Ignite Programme

Ignite supports students from disadvantaged and underrepresented backgrounds so that they can overcome the barriers they face while at university and build the bright futures they deserve.
Ignite supports students from disadvantaged and underrepresented backgrounds so that they can overcome the barriers they face while at university and build the bright futures they deserve.
We want all our students to benefit fully from studying at Southampton, and to have the chance to build themselves a bright future, regardless of their background. The Ignite Programme provides disadvantaged students with a unique combination of financial, pastoral, and social support to help them to succeed. The programme is entirely funded by donations or fundraising from our alumni and supporter community.
By fundraising for Ignite, you will ensure that we can help even more of our most disadvantaged students - empowering them to thrive at university and to determine their own futures as successful Southampton graduates.
