Why will a Bristol student call me?
Calls from our students are a chance for alumni to reconnect with Bristol - you can hear about our latest news, learn about how alumni are supporting current students, and reminisce when comparing your own University experiences to today's students. As part of the conversation, our students will also talk to you about the ways that donations can change the lives of both current and future students. As such, you may receive a call from a Bristol number between 28 October - 29 November 2026 during the following times. Please note, all times are GMT:
- Weekdays: 6.00pm to 9.00pm
- Saturdays: 10.00am to 5.00pm
- Sundays: 2.00pm to 8.00pm
Want to check that you received a genuine phone call from your university?
Students who contact you will be able to request that an immediate verification email is sent to you from our alumni@bristol.ac.uk address to confirm the call is part of our alumni telephone campaign. Should you wish to check that the number who called you is from the University, please email this address or call us on +44 (0)117 394 1046. Please note that the inbox is only monitored during working hours.
Do you pay your student callers?
Yes. We are proud to be a Real Living Wage employer and want to recognise the time and efforts of our students. Please be assured that 100% of any gifts you make will support charitable causes at Bristol.
