About SCA - Introduction

Our Purpose


Cambridge SCA exists to encourage the involvement of students in voluntary community work, providing services to disadvantaged groups within the community and giving students a valuable learning experience.  We registered as a charity in 1972 and have gone from strength to strength ever since.  We now offer more than 70 opportunties to potential volunteers. 

We Value

  • the equal rights of all individuals (see our equal opportunities)
  • practical activities that help to counter disadvantage within the community
  • cultural diversity
  • the two-way exchange of ideas between individuals with different cultures

Our Organisational Objectives


  • to provide equal opportunities for all students to become involved in the organisation's activities
  • to provide a variety of volunteering opportunities to students by running a variety of projects
  • to provide opportunities for students to become involved in the management of the organisation and its projects
  • to allow client groups opportunities to guide the organisation towards providing the services that they require
  • to work in partnership with other organisations
