Dear 

Despite the drop in temperature, 30 staff, students and alumni took part in the 2018 5k Santa Fun Run on Thursday 6 December, raising £170 for the Inspiring Futures Programme!

The year comes to an end with great news that Leeds Trinity has been shortlisted for a national employability award and has received recognition in the UK’s Best Breakthroughs List for the development of Degree Apprenticeships.

The Corporate Communications Team have a special message for all our alumni here - we are so grateful for the support you continue to give the University!

On behalf of everyone at Leeds Trinity University we'd like to wish all of our alumni and their families a very Happy Christmas and best wishes for 2019.

We'd like to say a very warm welcome to our newest alumni community members who graduated on Wednesday 5 December. 

One of our graduates was England Rugby League player, Charlotte Booth, who diligently balanced her studies and rugby career during her degree.

We wish all of our graduates every success, and look forward to hearing about your future achievements.
