The sun is starting to shine in Brighton ☀️ - now is the perfect time to explore the beautiful landscapes that surround our stunning campus. 🌿
To make the most of the weather, we partially followed the campus Boundary Walk waymarked route (the great part of the walk is that you can always customise it!) and explored the wonders of nature.
The Boundary Walk is also the perfect addition to a visit back to campus (and perhaps a reunion of your uni friends) - contact us at [email protected] for further advice and assistance on organising your own alumni reunion!
Wishing all our alumni and friends a Happy Lunar New Year, as we begin the Year of the Dragon 🐉
