From our early days, Jane brought Commonweal’s vision and ethos to life with her wealth of experience in the housing sector, her imagination and her dedication to helping others. The impact of Jane’s work continues to be felt throughout our organisation and through our work with our partners, helping those at the sharpest ends of deprivation.

The Bursary exists to support students at the University of Birmingham’s School of Social Policy with their final undergraduate research. It is available to students who are researching issues related to housing, social injustices and young people. Each year, four students are typically awarded the Bursary, which provides a £2,500 grant from Commonweal and mentoring support.

We invite recipients to present their completed research findings to Commonweal staff, trustees and friends at a celebratory event.
