Sheffield Hallam has a mission to Transform Lives.

But it's not the University that transforms lives, it's the people that work within the organisation - both staff and students. Its leadership, passion and enthusiasm of these staff that provide opportunities to challenge narratives, provide access and scale barriers. Opportunities that are grasped by our student body which affect genuine change.

This book will take you through many of these stories, one page at a time. Stories that motivate. Stories that challenge. And stories that show, viscerally, how lives can change.

Rising Above showcases so many inspirational stories, in the words of the students that have risen above their challenges. This book is humbling and should be a source of comfort to those facing similar battles of their own.
