Alumni Events
You are invited to attend over 100 events organised by the College each year. Each event is an ideal opportunity for you to meet or to catch up with friends and former lecturers from your student days, as well as current students and staff.
In addition, you are also invited to our London-based reunions and lectures, local UK regional reunions, overseas alumni receptions, career and networking events.
If you are part of a group that meets regularly or if you are organising your own bespoke reunion and would like to invite your contemporaries along, do let us know and we would be happy to publicise your event on your behalf.
