Overview

Cambridge is a city of contrasts. Alongside world-leading universities and a booming knowledge economy, some communities, particularly in King’s Hedges and Arbury in North Cambridge, face deep inequalities in income, education, health, and access to opportunity.

The Cambridge 2030 Fund, managed by Cambridgeshire Community Foundation in partnership with Cambridge 2030, aims to change that.

The fund is looking to support organisations and projects across Cambridge that deliver a more equal and inclusive city where everyone can achieve sustained happiness and wellbeing.
