BOURNEMOUTH and Poole College is calling on members of the public to share photos of the Students' Union (BPCSU) from the past 50 years.

The college launched its 50th anniversary celebration campaign in September with a themed freshers’ fair complete with a rodeo bull and DJ set for more than 2,000 students.

In February 2020, it will be hosting a celebration for past and present students and staff to highlight the role of the Union and how it provides them with a voice.

Brian Stewart, student engagement co-ordinator at the college, said: "We are really proud of what BPCSU has achieved over the past 50 years and are already planning for the next 50.

"We pride ourselves on offering students a well-rounded experience, that not only prioritises education, but we also invest in student life at the college.

“To demonstrate our ongoing commitment to our students, we listened to what they needed and have invested in a new games room, computers and social areas in our Students’ Union, which boosts sociability and productivity during term time."

Photos should be sent to studentsunion@bpc.ac.uk with the date included if known.

Bournemouth and Poole College is home to around 12,000 students from across the region, the rest of the UK and around the world. It is the largest provider of further education and apprenticeships in the area.
