Add Your Story
The University of Central Lancashire was founded on 7 October 1828 in Preston, as the Institution for the Diffusion of Knowledge. Whilst our name has changed several times since then, our original mission to enable people from all walks of life to make the most of their potential has remained the same.
Sharing stories is a central theme of our history and we plan to build a collection of personal narratives that will really bring the history of our University to life. We’d like to hear your stories. Perhaps you set out on a life-changing career path through the University; maybe your children studied here and found their vocation; or maybe you have enjoyed one of our events. Personal or professional, serious or downright silly – we’d love to hear your stories.
If you want to share your story and contribute to the collective memories we are seeking to create then please complete the form below.
