A Strategic Review of the Trust

With thanks to all who took part in this important exercise, the Cambridge Trust is pleased to present its Strategic Review 2024.

The Trust recently celebrated 40 years since it was founded which seemed an appropriate time to ‘take stock’. 

Dr Toby Wilkinson, whom the Trust engaged as its Strategic Advisor for the Review, sought to examine what is valued by our scholars, alumni, partners and stakeholders, and how the Trust’s vision and values, its core mission and distinctive strengths remain relevant in the changing landscape in which the Trust operates. 

As always, the Trust remains committed to working with its stakeholders in a spirit of partnership and continuous improvement to forge a clear path for future impact.
