As part of Keele’ s Festival of People, Planet & Place in April 2026, we created a postcard style exhibition to celebrate not only Keele University of the past, but the threads that connect generations through our landscapes, our community, and our shared responsibility for the future.
We invited our alumni to send us a photograph that feels like a postcard from their time at Keele- something that captures how people, places, and shared experiences shaped them while they were here. The postcards helped us to reflect on how Keele’ s environment and community have evolved and how the places we love continue to support wellbeing, connection, and sustainable futures for generations to come.
The postcards were showcased as postcard style prints in a physical exhibition on campus, during the festival in April and at Keele Day in June. The memories they show help tell a story of place, connection, and care, and by sharing these postcards, you help us celebrate the Keele we inherit, cherish, and pass on.
