Maggie's Cambridge Receives Planning
April 2025
The Maggie's Centre in Cambridge has won planning permission. The purpose-built structure will replace an existing, temporary Maggie’s Centre which, since 2012, has been housed within a converted key worker residential block.
Maggie’s chief executive Laura Lee said: ‘We've worked closely with Cambridge University Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust for many years to ensure people with cancer across the Cambridgeshire area, as well as those who love them, have had free expert support at our interim centre.
‘It is wonderful to now be a step closer to building a centre designed with people living with cancer in mind.’

St Cross Ground Breaking
February 2015
Building has started on our project for St. Cross College in Oxford. It will accommodate a library, seminar rooms and 53 post-graduate rooms just behind St. Giles. Soon after excavation started, we uncovered the shrouded remains of a woman buried in 1642 during the English Civil War. Oxford Archaeologists dated her from the coins that had been placed on her eyes. After a pause to remove the remains, the builders have started foundations around the historic walls. Completion is expected by May 2016.
A Ground Breaking Ceremony was held on the site on 27th February. Practical Completion of the building is anticipated in May 2016. You can follow progress on site by accessing the contractor’s webcam here (un:stcrosscollege; pw:oxford)
