March/April ebulletin
We begin this ebulletin with a massive thank you to everyone we spoke to during our spring telephone campaign. Our student callers loved catching up with you and through your generosity, we raised £30,000 for our charitable projects. The second stage of our campaign will commence on 22 April, so we look forward to speaking with more of you later in the spring.
Spring brings new growth and so it seems timely to share with you a banner snapshot of the new Priory Square building at our Hastings campus. The building is now operational with state-of-the-art facilities to maximise the doorstep educational opportunities for our Hastings community.
