We are so lucky to not only have a fantastic community of Old Brightonians who keep in touch with us, volunteering and attending events, but also generous OBs who are willing to host us at their fine establishments!
This year we were delighted to host this popular annaul event at the newly opened an refurbished Karma Sanctum Hotel in Soho, part of the Karma Group family of hotels and resorts owned by John Spence (Le. 1975-80), also very kindly the sponsors of the 1st XV rugby team for the 2017/18 season. After opening earlier this year, it was announced as recipient of the TripExpert Experts' Choice Award, so we were all really looking forward to being accommodated in their stylish roof terrace bar! We can safely say that Karma did not disapoint, the evening was a huge success and we have had nothing but positive feedback. So, thank you Karma for hosting us this year!
It was lovely to hear back from Ashkon Seyed-Safi (Al. 2006-13) who said “I always look forward to OB events, particularly the London Drinks. Not only is it a fun event where I can catch up with friends in a great venue, but also meet other Old Brightonians who attended the College at different times to when I was there and would not have had the chance to meet otherwise. I am really excited about the next one in 2018 and encourage all OBs reading this to come along for a great time.”
