Meet the team

We’re the Development and Alumni Relations Office (DARO). Contact us to find out more about how we can help you connect with each other – or if you can help the University and our current students. We’re here to help, we like hearing from you – and we want your feedback!

Campus tours

Want to visit the Colchester campus – perhaps as part of a reunion? We have a small group of student ambassadors who can give visiting alumni guided tours. They normally take about 20 minutes, and your guide can tailor the tour around you and your interests. They usually take place on weekdays. Please email us to enquire or book.

Any questions...?

We’ve put together a list of some of the questions we get asked the most, so have a look through just in case yours is one of them. If not, scroll down to see which one of us is best placed to answer your query.
