Creating lasting change

We’re always proud of how powerful our community can be, and how much more we can achieve when we work together. Throughout 2025, our teams and community partners made a huge impact on nearly 10,000 people within our community. We donated over £175,000 to charities and good causes - and three households moved out of our Rent to Home properties and into their own homes.

This is just a sample of the ways we made a difference in 2025.

Board Committees

The primary focus of the Board is to ensure that the Society has a sustainable future based on strong financial and risk management. The Board also has a duty to ensure that The Cambridge operates within relevant regulation and that proper accounting records and effective systems of business control are established, maintained, documented and audited.

Audit Committees

The Committee is responsible for the review of the integrity of financial statements, the effectiveness of internal controls and compliance systems. It recommends acceptance of the annual accounts to the Board and monitors the performance, objectivity, competence and effectiveness of the internal and external auditors. The Committee recommends to the Board (for approval by our members) the appointment or reappointment of the external auditors.

Remuneration & People Committee

The Committee is responsible for the terms and conditions of employment of the Executive Directors and also recommends Non-Executive remuneration to the full Board.

Nominations Committee

Responsible for succession planning for both Executive and Non-Executive Director positions, the Nominations Committee leads the process for recommending and appointing new members to the Board. It considers the balance, skills range, knowledge and experience of the Board, the requirements of the organisation, and recommending change where appropriate.

Risk Committee

The Committee advises the Board on setting the Society’s overall risk appetite, risk tolerance and risk strategy and is responsible for monitoring risk management across the organisation. The Committee has close links with the Society’s Mortgage Credit, Assets and Liabilities, Conduct Risk and Operational Committees.
