We are thrilled to announce the winners of this year’s Postgraduate Community Experience Awards.

Laura Thomas-Walters won an award for her ‘Craft your PhD’ project. PhD students will have the opportunity to explore alternative ways of communicating their research, while enhancing their own well-being through mindful creativity.

Luke Shoveller and Abigail MacGregor won an award for their project ‘Finding your Feet: Exploring Kent, by Foot’. This project focuses on a series of walks that will take postgraduate students on a journey through the Kent countryside. The aim is to support postgraduates’ health and well-being by seeking to forge a stronger relationship between students and the local natural and built environment.

Katja May has been awarded funding for an interactive workshop that will look at key issues and best practice in anti-racist higher education. Katja will have the support of the BARC Collective, a collective of early and mid-career academic women of colour committed to bringing together scholars and students of colour and anti-racist allies to develop anti-racist pedagogy and practice.

Hal Gruffydd Dorrington and Vilius Savickas are teaming up to collaborate on a creative research project across Medway and Canterbury campuses. They have been awarded funding to organise a visual competition which will explore the research being undertaken at Kent.

Congratulations to all of our winners.

Details on how you can get involved with the winning projects will be announced in the New Year.
