WATCH: CAMBRIDGE UNITED LAUNCH NEW COMMUNITY VIDEO
As part of the #CambridgeUnites campaign, Cambridge United have today unveiled a new video to highlight the club’s extensive work across all cross-sections of the local community and a membership subscription that will allow fans to support its growth.The #CambridgeUnites campaign is now well underway, with the aim of helping Cambridge United Community Trust expand its outreach and positively affect the lives of as many people within the community as possible. The new community video reveals the scale of work already being delivered by the club, but “there’s so much more to do”.
The video defines the U’s excellence pathway, development pyramid, highlights the open-access opportunities available through the Community Football Programme and provides information about the vast number of projects being delivered by our Community Trust.
Examples of community engagement activities coming up in the next few weeks include a new walking football programme, a free lunch during the school holidays for children from Abbey Ward, and a free food and karaoke night for residents of Ditton Fields, in conjunction with We Are Ditton Fields.

Cambridge United Chief Executive Jez George commented: “We would like to thank Marco (Ferri) and Ben (McAuley) for the incredible amount of work undertaken in producing such a professional video.
“Both are fans of the club and it’s very humbling that they feel so passionately about getting the message of our work within the community to the public at large.
“We are very grateful for their time, expertise and help. We hope it makes our supporters proud of our work and articulates the message that Cambridge United is a massive asset to this city. This video can help us spread the word, especially amongst the great and the good of Cambridge, that we are far more than what happens on a Saturday afternoon."
Cambridge United Community Trust Manager Danny Kerrigan added: “We’re proud of the contribution Cambridge United makes to the community and this video gives our fans and the general public a snapshot of this work.
“As with every other charity, we need to fundraise in order to continue growing our outreach.
“To this end, we have created a ladder of Community Trust Memberships as part of the #CambridgeUnites Campaign that gives everyone the chance to subscribe on a monthly basis to gain exclusive Cambridge United content and access.
“Whether it is Bronze, Silver or Gold, the rewards will keep coming as long as you remain subscribed, enabling the wider Cambridge United community to support our charitable work in a fulfilling and exciting way.”
