Cambridgeshire Community Foundation (CCF) is a registered charity dedicated to improving the quality of life for the people of Cambridgeshire. We work with many partners to:

• Actively inspire philanthropy & increase permanent resources for Cambridgeshire
• Invest in important community programmes through grants
• Provide leadership on critical community issues
  

Over the past 18 months we have taken a leading role in response to the Coronavirus pandemic. CCF created the Cambridgeshire Coronavirus Community Fund, which raised and dispersed over £1.3m to projects tackling the impacts of the pandemic.

And that’s on top of our normal work. We are an accredited member of the UK Community Foundation Network and have been supporting Cambridgeshire and Peterborough since 2004.Our unique approach is based upon empowering communities to identify how to enact positive change from the ground up. Last year we awarded almost £3.8 million to support our local communities and address need across our county.

Now, more than ever, we need to strengthen and build resilience in our communities and we need new team members to help us do that!

We are excited to launch recruitment for our new Young People’s Panel, putting the Youth Voice at the heart of CCF.

This is a volunteer role, with expenses covered, which provides a valuable youth perspective on our strategic aims, community interaction, and grant making activities.

Please download our YPP Applicant Information Pack for more details about the role and how to apply.

please email xanthe@cambscf.org.uk or call 01223 410535.

Our dedicated team of volunteer visitors travel to the projects we fund to meet the groups and see the projects in action.

This is a flexible role as volunteers can sign up for the visits that are a good for for them and then correspond with the group to arrange a mutually convenient date and time.
