Future Ready®
Putting our Ingenuity Forward
As we face a collective turning point in our climate, resources and
communities, a brighter future is ours to create together. We exist to
future-proof our cities and environments. Despite an ever-changing
landscape, our commitment to our purpose remains resolute.
It courses through every facet of our organization, anchored in
our beliefs and Guiding Principles - and it is this purpose that will
continue to propel us into the future.
How Far Can We See?
In 2019, we challenged ourselves to
expand our horizons, setting ambitious
goals to push ourselves even further as
an organization. Since then, we have
lived through a period of extraordinary
changes, yet we continued to deliver on
our aspirations. Through the deliberate
evolution of our core pillars — People
and Culture, Clients, Expertise,
Operational Excellence — as well as
our foundational strength and the
dedication and resilience of our people,
we are extremely proud to have realized
our 2019-2021 strategic ambitions.
Today, we are boldly redefining the
role of a professional consulting firm.
We are applying our state-of-the-art
expertise and the collective ingenuity
of our people in order to imagine and
create Future Ready® places for clients
and communities, locally and across
the globe. Our work is of strategic
importance in preparing for the future;
and we are at the heart of climate
change consciousness.
“Our long-term vision sets an ambitious
destination for WSP to become the
undisputed leader in our industry.”

Support Cambridgeshire have completed their annual survey to find out about the state of the voluntary sector in Cambridgeshire, and this year we have also worked with a data scientist to analyse what national data from the Charity Commission and 360 Giving tells us about local charities.
Report on the 2022 survey of Cambridgeshire charities and community groups. Survey looked at the impact the pandemic had on the sector and what the future needs for support might be.
We have a vibrant and diverse voluntary and community sector in Cambridgeshire. On the whole there is optimism for the future. 59% of respondents think that 2022 will be a better year than 2021 for their organisation.
We have seen the sector working with other partners to make the pandemic as bearable as possible.
We have seen incredible efforts put in by staff, volunteers and trustees.
We have seen groups adapting and learning to ensure services were continued and improved.
We know that there are challenges ahead but we have seen positive changes starting to happen. We need to build on what we have, learn from our mistakes and celebrate our successes.
Every year Cambridge RAG fund us to offer our smaller members grants of up to £200. The application process is deliberately made easy and we trust groups to spend the money as they have said they would.
This video is the responses to a survey of 2016 recipients of the funding. These small grants make a big contribution to the groups and we would like to extend our thanks to all the students involved in RAG who support local good causes through this fund.
Thank You.

priorities
2019-20
Our main priority for 2019-20 will be to finalise the strategy and embed this
into the work of the organisation. We will need to continue to look at how
we can diversify our income and how we can build on our work to reach
more groups.
Additional funding from the City Council will allow us to improve our digital
offering by training the staff to deliver online training and by purchasing
some equipment that will enable us to help ourselves and groups with their
use of video. We will also be looking at developing new training in line with
the sectors needs, and ensuring we are able to bring in outside trainers
when we need their expertise.
We will be looking at developing a more coherent communications strategy
and plan in order to improve how we keep the sector informed , but also
how we can deliver communications in a more effective and efficient
manner. We will continue to build a local and national reputation as a
champion of small charities and community groups.
2019-2020 will see us looking at funding to maximise the space at Arbury
Court to ensure that tenants and others can have a variety of spaces
available to them for meetings and training. We will continue to look at
providing additional office space if a need arises.
As part of Support Cambridgeshire we will look at how we can continue to
build on the partnership and how we can continue to build a strong offer for
voluntary and community groups across the county. We will need to look at
what we do in year four of the contract and how we are engaged as the
contract goes up for retendering. We will also look at how we can develop
other partnerships both locally and nationally that will benefit groups and
allow us to develop new services.Annual Review 2018-2019
