The Society has a varied programme of events each year, including talks by eminent Cantabrigians, an annual dinner where usually the Master of a college speaks, a freshers’ reception (online and offline recently) to help support those about to go up, and visits to places of cultural or scientific interest such as Abbotsford House and the James Clerk Maxwell Foundation. We also have, various celebratory get-togethers, some with our Oxford friends, including an online quiz, the Boat Race, Christmas drinks. Our programme is designed to include both virtual and physical events so that we can include alumni across the country. Latest details are given under the Group Events tab.

We also have an Access initiative to encourage more Scottish school pupils to apply to Cambridge and to support them during the application process.

Membership is free and is open to any Cambridge alumni regardless of where they live.
