Many institutions are investing in alumni mentoring and volunteering, but keeping people engaged over time isn’t easy. This roundtable will share early insights from the British Council’s work on a global mentoring offer, alongside learning from Alumni UK Ambassadors and other purpose-driven initiatives.

The focus will be on honest discussion. What’s working? What isn’t? What actually motivates alumni to stay involved?

Participants will swap experiences, compare approaches and explore practical ways to build mentoring and volunteering offers that people want to stick with. You’ll leave with ideas you can try straight away, whether you’re just starting out or looking to strengthen what you already have.
