We are the local charity that cares about the Cambridge area and its green landscapes. Cambridge, Past, Present & Future is the only independent, local charity that looks at the bigger picture of the development of Cambridge. Whether historic buildings, green spaces, nature, housing or infrastructure – we are passionate about all of it. Protecting, enhancing and celebrating all that’s good about this special city, and its surrounding areas.
We act as a voice of reason and conscience for those who are responsible for greater Cambridge’s future. Ensuring that it moves forwards with respect for nature, history and the people who live here. No other local charity has as broad a reach or remit. No other organisation cares about the past, present and future of Cambridge the way we do.
Our sole purpose is to make sure that, no matter how Cambridge progresses, it retains everything that connects us to its history and makes it a vital, and beautiful place to be. To this end, we work with the people of Cambridge and other organisations to protect, enhance and celebrate everything that makes Cambridge special, for today and for generations to come.
Our mission is very simple (yet, at the same time, very complex) – to make sure the development of Cambridge is carried out responsibly. Improving this great place, for people and nature.
Wandlebury Country Park
On the Gog Magog Hills, just south of Cambridge, this beautiful countryside estate offers miles of wonderful walks through woodland and wildflower meadows grazed by Highland Cattle.
The park includes the remains of a circular Iron Age Hillfort, steeped in myth and legend, and an 18th century house, stables and gardens.
A fantastic setting for a picnic or a BBQ, to watch wildlife, run around and build a den, a gentle stroll or a strenuous hike. Enjoy refreshments at one of our pop-up cafes which are open every Thursday – Sunday and most days in the school holidays. Please check social media for the latest updates.
If it is a special occasion you can hire our beautiful paddock and fully equipped stable rooms and bring your own catering and entertainment.
The country park is cared for by people just like you. By joining as a member you will be helping Cambridge Past, Present & Future care for and protect Wandlebury and the charity’s other green spaces and heritage in Cambridge.
Memberships start at £27 and all memberships include FREE parking at Wandlebury.
