Were you part of the Buddy Programme during your studies? Come celebrate with us on Friday 18th and/or Saturday 19th October! We have planned a jubilee weekend with typical Buddy Programme activities, and  can also promise that there will be several former Buddy Coordinators participating.

To join, sign up no later than 10 October: (sign up closed).
