Tell Your Story - Inspire the Next Generation 

Our alumni have made significant contributions to various sectors from politics to sport, to art, literature and education, and to communities around the world.  Our current students are having significant impact across the wider student experience.  We would like to create opportunities to inspire our current students by learning about the career journeys and wider experiences of our alumni community post-graduation.  We would like to build a series of alumni profiles which explore how your time at Trevs shaped your own journey and to share insights with students so that they are inspired to explore without limits.

Tell Your Story Profiles

Our current students are having significant impact across various aspects of college life.  As they prepare for life after graduation, we would like to inspire them with the achievements of our alumni community over the last 60 years.  We also hope to share insights into career journeys and reflections on how Trevelyan College has shaped what our graduates have gone on to achieve post-graduation. 

For the 60^th Anniversary, we would like to create 60 profiles of alumni from a range of sectors, industries, and professions to inspire our current and future generations of students.  We will create an online collection of profiles over the course of the anniversary year.

Tell Your Story Events

Over recent years, we have been delighted to welcome alumni and supporters to share their career journeys and experiences following graduation at in-person events with current students.  We hope to expand these activities during the anniversary year.  Further details about specific group activities will be shared on this webpage in due course. 

Your Impact

When you take part in these initiatives, you will:

• Connect with and inspire current students by sharing your story and career journey
• Highlight possibilities for future generations, helping them dream bigger and aim higher
• Empower reflection and growth, enabling students to see how their own Trevs experience can shape an extraordinary future

Together, we can create a legacy of inspiration and opportunity, helping every student to truly explore without limits.
