Financial Statements 2019/2020


Middlesex is about transformation. We empower students and staff with the tools, attributes and opportunities to turn potential into success.


We embrace inspirational teaching and learning, creative innovation, and practical and forward-thinking research that benefits our students, business, society and the world in which we live.

A powerful display in the Quad in January featured 111 pairs of shoes that represent the number of women killed by violence by men in 2019. The Metropolitan Police attended the exhibition giving advice and support to staff and students. We started hosting Barnet Refugee Service’s youth club, set up by Spanish Lecturer Maria Jimenez. Teenage refugees from countries such as Iran, Syria, Afghanistan and Somalia enjoyed a range of weekly activities and social interaction at the University as they adjust to life in Britain.


Multi-faith and diversity events


We have built a strong partnership with the Barnet Multi Faith Forum. Joint events included a special ceremony to unveil the plaque for our interfaith trees and plant snowdrop bulbs. Nic Beech chaired online the Forum’s Annual General Meeting in July, which was followed by a discussion on faith and the coronavirus pandemic.


To mark Black History Month we hosted the launch of the memoir of Ghana’s former First Lady and first ever female presidential candidate, Dr Nana Konadu Agyeman-Rawlings. We also created a campaign book bringing together an array of student work produced as part of our Changing the Culture Initiative. By giving voice to different affected groups, and increasing our collective understanding of these important issues, we hope it will help to drive forward culture change towards a more tolerant, respectful and safer university community.


We hosted a Christmas and Chanukah celebration at the end of 2019, with school pupils turning on the lights, followed by carol singing, Chanukah songs and seasonal treats.


Middlesex University 47


Around 500 people remembered Holocaust and genocide victims in an inspiring event in January 2020, organised by the London Borough of Barnet and held in the Quad.


Working with businesses, entrepreneurs and industry


Over the year, we worked closely with membership and umbrella organisations to connect with and influence businesses.


We continued to be active members of industry bodies including the Confederation of British Industry, London Chamber of Commerce and Industry, and North London Chamber of Commerce and Enterprise. We have used these networks to influence higher education and skills policy and build new partnerships. We sponsored a range of events, including the West London Business Awards at Twickenham Stadium in February 2020.


We also continued to support entrepreneurship. This year, we led Barnet’s Big Idea Entrepreneurial Competition, a joint initiative with Barnet Council and Barnet and Southgate College. NatWest helped us judge our Junior Entrepreneur of the Year competition, involving several local schools. Janthana Kaenprakhamroy, founder and CEO of Tapoly, and Middlesex alumna, gave a keynote speech at a London Centre for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SME) Development event on female entrepreneurship.
