About the awards

In 2016, we set the ambitious goal of reaching 250,000 volunteer hours as part of our It's All Academic Campaign. ÌýWe are proud to say that reached our target a year early and achieved a total of 263,000 volunteer hours.ÌýThis remarkable achievement was only possible thanks to the brilliant Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê alumni who work so hard to create valuable experiences and lifelong memories for their peers.

The Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê Alumni Volunteering Awards were first launched in 2018 with the aim of expressing our gratitude to the phenomenal alumni volunteers who dedicate their time and effort to enriching the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê experience for students, graduates, and staff alike.

By offering careers advice, digital mentoring, and speaking at events, our graduates contribute so much to learning and life at Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê.Ìý

At last year’s awards, Ajaz Hussain won Volunteer of the Year for his fantastic support of Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê graduates and students on . Meanwhile, the Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê Recent Graduates Network won Alumni Group of the Year for their work helping alumni who have graduated within the last 10 years to stay connected to Ïã¸ÛÁùºÏ²Ê.
