Keeping in touch

The strength of the relationships formed here can be maintained through our active and vibrant alumni community, bringing you both career and social benefits.

Social networks

Social networks are a great way to keep in touch with old friends and with what's happening at Bristol.  You can keep in touch on Facebook, network with fellow alumni on LinkedIn, keep up-to-date with the latest news from Bristol on Twitter and even watch videos on YouTube.

Contacting friends

If you forgot to swap numbers with friends before you left and now wish you had, or if the years have passed and you feel like renewing old acquaintances, we can help.

  • You may be able to find their contact details in the  alumni directory (login required).
  • Otherwise, if we are in touch with your contemporaries, we can forward a letter or an email to them on your behalf. Please email alumni@bristol.ac.uk or call +44 (0)117 928 7938 for more information.
  • If they are one of our 'lost alumni' we have advice on finding your lost friends on the internet.
