Organising a bespoke reunion

Reunions are becoming more and more popular but where do you start? 
Where is everyone now? 
How do I go about getting in touch with lost friends?  

We can help you: from finding your contemporaries to booking a room on campus and getting your former department staff to attend the event.

If you cannot think of when to hold your reunion, you can always bring your party to our annual alumni events: London Hospital Dental Clinical Meeting which is traditionally held in late February/early March, Alumni Spring Lunch, especially designed for our Westfield Alumni and held at the end of March, Alumni Reunion Weekend held in the autumn at the beginning of October or the biennial Barts and The London Alumni Association Dinner which takes place in mid-November.

For more information on how we can help please contact alumni@qmul.ac.uk.
