School of Law and Social Justice alumni recently came together in London for an informal evening of networking and celebration at The Athenaeum Club. The event provided a valuable opportunity for graduates to reconnect with fellow alumni, strengthen professional relationships, and engage with the University of Liverpool. 

The reception was hosted by Professor Valsamis Mitsilegas, Dean of the School of Law and Social Justice, Professor Rob Stokes, Head of Liverpool Law School, and Dr John Tribe, Senior Lecturer in Law. Short speeches celebrated the School’s recent achievements, growing global reputation, and continued commitment to excellence in legal education and research. 

Reflecting on the evening, Professor Valsamis Mitsilegas said: “Our alumni are an integral part of the School’s success. Their continued engagement, support and advocacy strengthen our global community and help shape the next generation of legal professionals.” 

The evening also highlighted the vital role alumni play in supporting the University community through mentoring, sharing professional expertise, and championing student opportunities. The London gathering reflected the strength of the University of Liverpool’s global alumni network and reinforced the enduring connection between the School, its graduates and the wider University community.
