Hatfield Association

The Hatfield Association is a community for all alumni and friends of Hatfield College, Durham University.

The importance of a sense of belonging is at the heart of the famous Hatfield spirit. Once a Hatfielder, always a Hatfielder. Year on year our graduates go out in the wider world enriched by the Hatfield spirit to join the network of Hatfield alumni. Our alumni are an important part of the College community and, through the work of the Hatfield Association and the Hatfield Trust, they continue to make an active contribution to College life. Vel Primus Vel Cum Primis since 1846

About the Hatfield Association

Hatfield Association was established in 1946, at a time when the future of Hatfield College, Durham University was uncertain - this was the first time that Hatfielders came together and probably the finest proof of the legendary Hatfield spirit.

Our aim

Our aim is to ensure we have a strong, active and engaged network of Hatfield alumni (graduates), to facilitate and build strong relationships with the College and to support its educational and welfare aims. To this end the Hatfield Association plays an active role in:

• organising annual reunions; • helping to connect members through regular updates and publications; • offering career advice for students through a partnership with SHAPED; • supporting the outreach programme for schools; and • playing an active role in all three common rooms supporting College development.
