What are the Vice Chancellor’s Social Impact Awards?

The Vice-Chancellor’s Social Impact Awards were launched for the first time by Cambridge Hub in 2018-19, to celebrate students who have shown exceptional achievement in, and commitment to, creating positive social change.

Our award categories are:
