Dear all I hope you are all well. All is good back here at The University - we have had graduation ceremonies over the past couple of weeks, with excellent sunny weather last week but sadly rainy cold weather this week.

If any of you have any photos you wish to share from the Alumni event please get in touch so I can add you as an admin so you can do so.

James
