BME Campaign
Most colleges have a BME officer as part of their student representative group. You can turn to them for advice and support, and they will represent your interests at the college level.
The Black and Minority Ethnic (BME) Campaign represents, supports, and advocates for all BME students at the University of Cambridge. It's another great place to start if you are looking for specific support or opportunities to spend time with other BME students.
The BME campaign fights against racism and advocates for issues such as targeted mental health support, an ethical approach to University investments, and anti-racist training for students and staff.
FUSE is an organisation for queer people of colour at Cambridge. FLY is a network for women and non-binary students of colour at Cambridge. Both groups organise events and run campaigns.
