She rose to fame as Britain's best-loved barmaid, Shelley Unwin, in Coronation Street, but caught the acting bug here at the University of Hull where she studied English Language and Literature in 1995. This October, Sally Lindsay MBE will return to campus to deliver this year's Barbara Canham Turner Lecture.

Sally Lindsay: 'Opportunities Taken By a Working-Class Actor' | Wednesday 14th October 2026 | 19:00 - 21:00 | Middleton Hall.

The star and co-creator of The Madame Blanc Mysteries, who was also a regular panellist on ITV talk show Loose Women, will be reflecting on a career that has seen her become one of British television's most recognised faces on-screen and an influential figure off-screen.

Who remembers their Rag Week?

Our Centenary Archives Photo Project alumni volunteers have given us a glimpse at the treasures they've been unearthing from the archives. Today we have a little look at a selection of the Rag Parade images that have been digitised from Rag '66. We've got Batman, an Egg, Mother Feren's Shoe, and some other images that we can't quite figure out.

As we prepare for the Centenary and the opportunity to celebrate 100 years of the University of Hull, we'd love you to send your photos and memories from Rag across the years.

"A journey that was fundamentally shaped by the University of Hull."

We caught up with Matthew Jason Brown who was awarded a British Empire Medal this year in recognition of his remarkable commitment to public service and his local community.

Matthew first graduated with a BA (Hons) Business and Management from our Scarborough campus in 2008, before completing an MA in Globalization and Governance on our main campus in 2011, and he was very clear about how Hull played an important role in his development and his desire to make a difference.

It's our Summer Graduations and we're excited to be celebrating with the Class of 2026.

We're spending the week at Zebedee's Yard to talk to our newest alumni about staying in touch, enjoying the benefits of being alumni, and how they can remain part of our community wherever life takes them next.

It's been great to have talked with so many new graduates and their families, to find out what they've got planned next and to play a few games of HullAlumniConnect4. Thanks also to everyone who has taken part in our Alumni Blaze Pod Challenge - the current target to beat is 68!
