Alumni come together in Harrogate

The Business School successfully held its first-ever alumni event in Harrogate on Thursday 3 July 2025, welcoming a small group of alumni for an evening of conversation, connection, and community.

Held at Starling, the event brought together 10 attendees from a diverse mix of graduating years, courses, and professional backgrounds. From recent graduates to experienced professionals, it was a valuable opportunity to reconnect, share memories of Leeds, and expand networks in an informal and welcoming setting.

Hosted by Anna Wellard, Alumni Relations Manager, Chloe Chambers, Alumni Relations Executive, and Anna France, Senior Relationship and Partnership Manager, the evening offered plenty of opportunity for meaningful conversations, career reflections, and potential collaborations over drinks and refreshments.

The Harrogate event marked a special milestone as the School’s first alumni gathering in the town. Feedback from attendees was extremely positive, with many appreciating the chance to engage with the alumni community closer to home.

Thank you to everyone who joined us – we look forward to seeing you at a future event!
