Telethons

Every year, Keele University runs a Telethon, where current students contact Keele alumni (graduates) in order to gain a valuable insight into their experiences after Keele, whilst also allowing alumni to hear about the University's latest achievements and developments.

In 2024, we are celebrating 75 years of Keele University; our legacy is one of continuous growth and transformation and, with your support, we can ensure that the next 75 years are just as impactful.

Telethons allow the University to continue to build strong relationships with our alumni, whilst in turn offering former students a chance to make a direct impact on current and future Keele cohorts. Any money raised through the Telethons goes directly to supporting Keele students through a variety of projects, funds, bursaries and scholarships.

We are deeply grateful to our supporter community; the cumulative impact of many people joining together is transformational. Alumni can also help by volunteering their time to give guest lectures, offer work placements, host career tours for our current students, and by providing testimonials of their Keele experience that we can share with current and prospective students.

Thank you

If you receive a call, we hope that you enjoy speaking to one of our current students and hearing about what’s happening at Keele. If you choose to support our Student Support Programmes or other funds, bursaries or scholarships, thank for you helping us to raise money to further improve the Keele experience for students, both today and in the future.
