Benefactors' Day

New College was delighted to welcome some of its most generous supporters to 2023’s Benefactors’ Day on Saturday 29 April. It is the College’s annual opportunity to recognise and celebrate its loyal Old Members and friends, and to say ‘thank you’. 

Members of the Warden’s Circle, Patrons’ Circle, 1379 Circle, the Wykeham Society and other supporters gathered for a reception in the Founder’s Library, followed by a delicious seasonal lunch in Hall. A celebratory concert of song and music from students followed in the Chapel, as well as an exhibition of the some of the treasures from New College Library. The day was rounded off with afternoon tea in the Cloisters, and a peaceful Evensong in Chapel. The College extends its thanks to everyone who so kindly chooses to support our students, academics, widening participation schemes, and magnificent buildings.
