University promotes scholarship for white, working-class male students

The University of Bradford’s Keith Howard Opportunities Programme supports white working-class males by providing monthly living cost support of at least £500 during their studies. The scheme began in September 2024 and will support two more students in the 2026/27 academic year, following renewed funding from the Keith Howard Foundation.
