- You may be able to find their contact details in the alumni directory (login required).
- Otherwise, if we are in touch with your contemporaries, we can forward a letter or an email to them on your behalf. Please email development-alumni@bristol.ac.uk or call +44 (0)117 928 7938 for more information.

Social networks
Social networks such as Facebook, MySpace and Twitter are now becoming increasingly popular. There are already many Bristol-related groups set up by alumni on Facebook and we even have our own page - why not become a fan? If you're more interested in career-based networking you might also consider LinkedIn.
