Calling all Aidan’s alumni

St Aidan’s JCR is looking to breakaway from the University and set up as an independent body. It is one of several JCRs across the University that are currently looking to do this.

The JCR are looking for alumni to volunteer to act as trustees of the new JCR.

A really interesting opportunity for alumni to re-engage with College and also gain some valuable experience.

Hello to all Aidan's Alumni
This year’s Aidan's Alumni Association AGM will take place at 2pm on Saturday 16 November in the Shincliffe Room at St Aidan’s College. Refreshments will be provided. For those of you on the University's alumni mailing list an agenda will be emailed to you within the next two weeks along with the minutes from last year’s AGM, so do look out for these.

Please be aware that the AGM will coincide with the JCR's recent graduates' weekend and Durham's Lumiere Weekend, so there are three good reasons to be in Durham that weekend! If you have any queries before then, please contact [email protected].

We hope to see lots of you there!

Best wishes,
The Alumni Association Committee
