John Snow College 25th Anniversary Celebrations

This year marks 25 years since John Snow College was founded, and we’d love you to be part of our celebrations.

From our beginnings in Stockton to our home now at Mount Oswald, the College has grown through the contributions of students, alumni, and staff who’ve helped shape its character.

Over the coming months, we’ll be sharing stories, hosting events, and offering opportunities to reconnect with each other and with the College.

Take a look at the campaigns and events we have planned for the year ahead.

25 years of Memories

We’re launching a campaign that’s all about you — the students, friends, and changemakers who made John Snow College what it is today. Whether you joined us in Stockton or Durham, your memories matter. Send us your favourite photos & stories from your time at JSC. Use #Snow25yearson on social media

Or send them direct to - snow.alumni@durham.ac.uk
