The Long Service Awards reception is held each year to recognise, thank and celebrate University of Edinburgh colleagues who reach a long service milestone. From 2024 onwards*, all staff who reach 20, 25, 30, 40 or 50 years of continuous service are invited to attend a reception held in the calendar year they reach a milestone.
The reception is hosted by the Principal in December at a central campus venue. All staff are invited to bring a guest. Members of the University Court and Senior Leadership Team are also invited to attend.
*In previous years, the long service milestones were 25, 40 and 50 years.
