Kent’s annual ’25 Year Lunch’ was held in the Beagle Restaurant on Monday 23 October, with Professor Karen Cox, Vice-Chancellor and President, hosting and Alison Ross-Green, Director of Human Resources and Organisational Development, accompanying her.

The lunch celebrates and recognises the contribution each staff member has made over the years at the University. Eleven members of staff attended to celebrate their 25 years at the University and were presented with gifts that they had chosen by the Vice-Chancellor in recognition of their contribution over the years. The Beagle Restaurant was the perfect venue and a thoroughly enjoyable time was had by all.
