Autumn's arriving at Bailrigg - complete with obligatory rain showers☔️

It was great to see James Whately-Smith (Theatre Studies, 2009, Pendle) who met his wife, Hannah (History, 2009, Furness) at Lancaster, revisiting Bailrigg to celebrate their 13th wedding anniversary. They enjoyed visiting old haunts and reminiscing about student life - even though some of campus has undoubtedly changed considerably over the years. Don't forget to let us know if you are visiting and we can send you some top tips! [email protected]

A few ideas for those starting at or coming back to visit Lancaster. Can't guarantee the sky will be this blue, but still plenty of things to do!
