Environment and Sustainability

As a College, we are working towards putting environmental issues at the heart of our strategic and operational decisions. We have a range of initiatives that benefit both our community and the wider planet, including a Sustainable Travel Grant that supports more sustainable academic travel, a Community Fridge that helps share surplus food from the servery, and our annual Green Week, which highlights the College’s commitment to environmental responsibility through workshops and community events.

Our catering team has received multiple awards for pioneering plant-based, low-carbon dining in Cambridge. Additionally, we have embarked on an ambitious project to de-gasify the College estate, including the installation of a river-source heat pump to provide renewable heating.

To learn more about these and other initiatives, please explore the sections below.
