Cambridge students’ performance funds 700 meals for local people
Sixth Form students at Stephen Perse Cambridge have raised more than £600 for Cambridge Community Kitchen, a collective tackling food poverty in Cambridge, by organising a special cabaret performance. The funds will enable the collective to provide 700 meals for people in need.
Stephen Ward, Vice-Principal at Stephen Perse Cambridge, said: “Volunteering enriches the lives of everybody involved.
"Not only does it cultivate a sense of purpose, it also helps them to create lifelong memories and deepen their connection with their local community, making it an important part of our students’ personal development at all of our schools.
"Our annual Sixth Form charity cabaret is always eagerly anticipated and this year was no different – our students have embraced the opportunity to learn more about how collective action can drive positive change within the community; inspired by the example of organisations such as Cambridge Community Kitchen.”
Students at Stephen Perse Cambridge engage in a wide range of community outreach and service activities.
In 2024 to 2025, students across the family of schools volunteered more than 3,000 hours to serve their communities.
