☎️READING CALLING!☎️
Meet some of our brilliant students who'll be picking up the phone to Reading alumni and supporters over the coming weeks, as part of our Centenary Calling campaign.
For generations, the kindness and generosity of our University community has helped make Reading a place where people can learn, grow and find opportunities that might otherwise have been out of reach.
Now, our student callers are hoping to inspire that same generosity for the
generations to come.
They'll be sharing their experiences of life at Reading, hearing from those who came before them, and talking about how donations can make a real difference.
That could mean helping a student afford university through our Beyond 100 Bursary, giving local schoolchildren more opportunities to learn outdoors in our new Learning Garden, or being there for students when they need support the most.
Our callers are pictured here in the Learning Garden, one of the projects they're hoping to help grow.
As an alum, this is a chance for you to hear from the next generation of Reading students, share a little of your own experience, and perhaps help make someone else's university journey possible.
Thank you to everyone who has supported Reading over the past 100 years, and to those helping create possibilities for the next.
