A very special gift from one of our alumni!

A heartfelt thank you to alumnus Rupert Aker, who has very kindly donated two beautiful paintings of the Royal Agricultural University, painted during his time as a student at the RAC.

The paintings provide a wonderful window into the University’s past and reflect the memories and experiences that make our alumni community so special.

We are incredibly grateful to Rupert for his generosity and for sharing these unique pieces of RAU history with us. We look forward to them being appreciated by our community for many years to come.
