Congratulations to Verena Dietrich-Bischoff who was honoured on Tuesday evening at the Gives Back Awards 2022, hosted by the University of St Andrews Charities Campaign (USACC). The USACC is the official charitable subcommittee of the University of St Andrews Students’ Association, whose primary aim is to raise as much money as they possibly can for their three annually elected charities and have just as much fun in the process! Tuesday’s ceremony recognised outstanding contributions to St Andrews and invited awardees to celebrate the work carried out within our community. 

 

This year, the ‘Gives Back Award’ campaign introduced a new award, the ‘Making a Difference Award’, for which students and staff were asked to nominate members of staff who have gone the extra mile within St Andrew’s community and beyond. The award recognises staff who stepped up to help others during exceptional times, showing initiative or making a positive impact on the individuals/communities they have worked with. 

 

The indomitable Verena was one of the first winners of this award in recognition of her outstanding support of students during Covid. Well done and thank you for making a difference!
