I set up the Deborah Rowland Scholarship in collaboration with IWFM. This was founded after I was diagnosed with advanced cancer and decided that I wanted to leave a lasting legacy for others to be able to join the industry that has given me a fantastic career. I am passionate about ensuring that the FM industry is populated with ambitious and invigorating talent. The Scholarship aims to break down the barriers for those wanting to gain a career in workplace and facilities management and give people a chance to gain a professional qualification with IWFM for those that cannot afford to fund it themselves. In 2024 I gave out 2 scholarships and in 2025 I gave out 4 scholarships with the help of the funding. I hope to continue this in 2026 with more scholarships.
