Breaking News - 21st Anniversary Celebrations for Anglia Ruskin University!

2013 marks 21 years since Anglia Ruskin gained university status. We are delighted to announce that all Anglia Ruskin alumni are invited to return to celebrate our 'coming of age' at free events on the Chelmsford and Cambridge campuses.

The Cambridge campus celebration will be held on Saturday May 11th 2013, while the Chelmsford celebration is on Saturday June 15th 2013.

Both celebrations will take place between 11.00am and 2.30pm, with a different well known alumni speaker for each campus.

Chelmsford - Our Chancellor, Lord Ashcroft KCMG PC, will be speaking in Chelmsford on his passion for the Victoria Cross. He will talk about the roots of his early interest in bravery, how he built his VC collection and some examples of VC recipients. He will also reflect on cold courage versus spur of the moment bravery.

Cambridge - Television presenter Nick Crane will be speaking in Cambridge and the talk will be drawing from his BBC series Great British Journeys, Town and Coast (series 8 of Coast will be on television at the time of the celebrations). He will also be talking about the role East Anglia has played in his own life and in the cultural life of the nation.

We want to see as many of you as possible get involved in some good old-fashioned nostalgia, whether it has been one year since you were here or rather more than you would care to remember! With that in mind, please contact your old friends and classmates to make sure they come as well. It's the perfect opportunity to get back in touch, to see what's changed (or not!) and get together to relive those memories. Friends and family are also welcome, so take the chance to show them where you studied.
