Downing College Alumni Association

12/03/2026

Last night was the 2nd annual London get together for Downing College alumni. With alumni from across seven decades attending, the event was an opportunity to connect and share stories. The Alumni Association would like to thank Graham Virgo, the current Master and also a 1983 alum, for making the trip down from Cambridge to join us.

The Association was delighted to invite Downing undergraduates for pancakes in the hall on Pancake Day. Several alumni came along and enjoyed talking to students. The day was a great success and an informal opportunity to talk about the purpose of the Association.
