Alumni Resources: Life-long learning, careers support and guidance and help with industry projects.

Share your Success

If you need a character reference from one of our tutors or are interested in giving back to the Futureworks community by volunteering your time and expertise, we would be delighted to facilitate these opportunities for you. As an alumnus, you possess valuable knowledge and experience that can significantly benefit our current students, and we encourage you to consider participating in guest lectures, workshops, or masterclasses that align with your professional background.

We are committed to providing a supportive network for our alumni and fostering a collaborative learning environment for our students. By engaging with our community in this way, you contribute to future professionals’ growth and success and strengthen your connection to the Futureworks family. We look forward to hearing from you and exploring how you can share your valuable insights and experiences with the next generation of creative professionals. To request a character reference or express your interest in volunteering, please call our main reception at 0161 214 4600 or email our Industry Coordinator, Pete Jenkinson, at [email protected].
