Thanks to a donation from the Trust, a new student accommodation block will begin construction shortly at St Peter’s College, Oxford, where Alexander was an undergraduate.
The college said that the new building will make a transformative difference both to the feel of the College estate and to their capacity to continue making a top-flight Oxford education available to talented young people irrespective of means or background.
Students resident in the new building will be inspired to study hard by a fine view of Oxford Prison (although there have not been any inmates there since 1996).
The Trust has invited the College to choose a name for the building in close collaboration with their students and hopes that this will an interesting and rewarding project for the College community.
