You can organise your own visit or reunion at any time and make it exactly what you want it to be.

Whether you’re just dropping into the University informally on your own, or thinking of a full scale anniversary celebration, we can help you get started. We can assist with locating missing friends, or with notifying former classmates from a specific department and / or year that you are planning an event.

We also offer a programme of activities you can include in your reunion, as well as discounted prices on hospitality and accommodation, all to make your experience of returning to CCCU a truly memorable one.

What we offer

Please report to Reception in Old Sessions House, or the Security Team in Anselm building when you arrive, so they know you are here. Please note there is limited access to buildings at the weekend.

Take a tour

If you haven’t been back to CCCU for a while, our Alumni Relations team would be delighted to give you a guided tour around the Canterbury Campus to help you get re-orientated, give you access into buildings that would otherwise be closed, and give you the background to developments that have occurred since you left. How much or little you choose to explore after a guided tour is completely up to you.

Tour and tea

We are happy to offer you a guided tour around the Canterbury Campus, provided by a member of the Alumni team or a CCCU representative, to help you get re-orientated, access buildings that would be otherwise closed and to give you the background on developments that have occurred since you left CCCU.

In addition we are happy to arrange tea/coffee and light refreshments if the event takes place during a week day.
