CULC is campaigning for the University of Cambridge and its constituent colleges to pay the living wage to all employees.

  • According to the Living Wage Foundation, the real living wage outside of London is £8.75. The legal minimum for employees over 25, however, is only £7.50. 

  • The Cambridge University Living Wage Campaign (involving CULC and CUSU, amongst others) petitioned regents of the University to submit a Grace (a formal proposal) to a vote by Regent House. 50 signatures were needed, and c.230 were collected.
    ​
  • The Grace has been approved and the University is now committed to seeking Living Wage Accreditation. 

  • The focus for CULC now is campaigning for colleges to pay the living wage.
