So who are we? We are a group of former Raleigh International volunters who came together in 2019 as the UK Alumni Advisory Group (AAG). We’re made up of 13 UK alumni who have volunteered with Raleigh across its 35-year history, so our shared experiences are incredibly special to us. Volunteering gave us an opportunity to work with an international team, to challenge ourselves, create positive change and to learn about the world.
Recognising that there’s a shared human experience that connects and bonds all alumni, we want to create a UK national alumni society (like Raleigh alumni have set up in lots of other countries) that allows us to keep the spirit of teamwork, adventure and progress alive! We want this group to be led by alumni, by you, with support from Raleigh.
With your help, together we would like to explore alumni opportunities, networking, connections and experiences – including taking action in our local communities with the support of other Raleigh alumni. This isn’t just for London – this is for the whole of the UK.
For the AAG to better understand our wider UK alumni community we have put together a simple survey with the following objectives:
- Reach out, re-engage and collect feedback from Raleigh’s UK alumni community
- Learn about our amazing alumni community and your interests
- Find out what UK alumni-led societies or groups you’d like to see and take part in
- Identify future alumni engagement opportunities
