5. Networking – in a tough and competitive job market, Bradfield doesn’t just give you academic results – it gives you an immediate network of highly-skilled and well-connected OBs and parents across a wide range of professions who you can reach out to ask for advice, contact to seek mentoring or even jobs.    

6. Reunions – last summer we hosted 60 OBs from the Class of 1994 who were celebrating their 30-year reunion. We also helped organise a Reunion for 40 OBs in a pub in Clapham who were getting together for their 10-year Reunion. We have already pencilled in your 3 Year reunion – you just need to sign up to the Bradfield Society to be invited.

7. Alumni Clubs – the Bradfield Society has several different OB Clubs you can join, from regional and professional to sporting. Our sporting Clubs are active and play regular fixtures - ranging from the hugely successful cricket team called the Waifs which Mr Ettridge plays for, to football, shooting, running, sailing, squash, netball and hockey…. Can't see a club you want? As a member of the Bradfield Society you can always set one up. 

8. Private Member Clubs – if you like going out in London, we have close relationships with a few private members clubs who offer greatly reduced rates for their young members. To join a Club you usually have to be recommended and seconded by current members, but as an Associated School with some London Clubs, if you are a member of the Bradfield Society we can help with letters of recommendation from the Headmaster to fast-track your application.

9. Reduced Rate Bradfield Sports Centre Membership - Alumni aged 25 years and under receive a 50% discount on sports complex membership and can also take advantage of the Youth Rate for Golf (age 19-25) at the Bradfield College Golf Course. All enquiries to frontdesk@bradfieldcollege.org.uk

And what do we want from you?

We want you to Be Involved. Stay in touch, read our emails, like our instagram posts, come to our events, connect with other OBs, come back and give careers advice, recommend Bradfield to others and perhaps in the future, if you are in a position where you can give back financially, join other members of the OB community who have donated to the Bradfield Foundation and helped create the Bradfield that you have enjoyed and loved – from the Greek Theatre, Science Centre and Music Hall to the Golf Course, Clay Tennis Courts and most recently the St Andrews Study Centre – all of these amazing facilities would not have been possible without the philanthropic support of our alumni community.
