Impact stories: Ingvild Hvinden
2018, DPhil Chemical Biology
Recipient of a Floreat Grant

Ingvild Hvinden (2018)The Floreat Grant helped make rowing with the Balliol College Boat Club (BCBC) more accessible and affordable for me. The grant helped cover costs related to travelling for practice and competing. Despite difficulties with heavy rains, high rivers and short amount of time on the water, I was able to join the BCBC women at the 2020 Gloucester Head and win our division. Thanks to the Floreat Grant, cost of travel and competing were less of a worry. Thank you to those who make this possible for the students at Balliol – it’s really appreciated!
